Awards and Bursaries
Providing members with support at every stage of their career
We’re passionate about patient safety and aim to support practitioners at every stage of their career. Read about AfPP’s range of awards and see if any of them grab your attention. The application process is simple. AfPP decides who the recipients of the awards and bursaries are, and as long as you meet the criteria it could be you!
Volunteer Award
AfPP members can receive funding of £1,000 to put their skills to good use on overseas voluntary projects. The volunteer award in memory of Hilda Mears is granted to two perioperative practitioners per year, each receiving £1,000 to assist them in undertaking their volunteer role.
Novice Writer Award
Writers who have a first article published in the Journal of Perioperative Practice (JPP) between January and December are automatically entered by AfPP for this award.
The winner is selected by the review panel of the JPP.
First Time Attendee Award
AfPP are offering a limited number of free places to the AfPP Annual Conference for first time attendees.
You need to be an AfPP member to qualify.
Education and Research Bursary
A bursary of up to £1,000 is available to all AfPP members to assist with fees, research, study days, training courses and conferences. A great opportunity to advance the study of perioperative practice and promote excellence.
