Canon Collins Trust Leigh Day LLB Scholarship for African Students 2022

This scholarship is generously supported by Leigh Day & Co, a London law firm specialising in personal injury and human rights law.

Canon Collins Trust invites applications from current 2nd and 3rd year students (going into their 3rd and 4th year in 2022) studying for an LLB at the University of Fort Hare and the University of the Western Cape. They will provide funding for maximum of two years.

Law and human rights have long been within Canon Collins Trust’s priority areas for awarding scholarships. By investing in future members of South Africa’s legal profession they hope to support a new generation of leaders to develop legal systems which are just and equitable.

After the passing of Canon Collins, the Trust was renamed the Canon Collins Educational Trust for southern Africa.
