Nurturing Salford’s young talent | Gerry Mason Engineering Scholarship celebrates a major milestone
Contents
We are delighted to announce that the Gerry Mason Engineering Scholarship has seen its 50th local scholar enrol at the University of Salford this year. Morson Group, together with the Mason family, are proud to have created a legacy that benefits our local communities.
Supporting the young people of Salford
We established the scholarship in 2015, in memory of our founder Gerry Mason, a design engineer himself. The scholarship aims to continue his legacy by enabling budding engineers to study degree-level courses rooted in STEM. These scholarships focus on nurturing future skills for various sectors, including aerospace, automotive, infrastructure, nuclear, engineering, IT & digital, and more.
From the outset, the goal of the scholarship was to help young people from Salford reach their full potential, by removing financial and social barriers to attending university. Now, our partnership with IntoUniversity, an organisation that supports young people from disadvantaged neighbourhoods in achieving their goals, the scholarships have created a lasting partnership between Morson and the University.
Our CEO, Ged Mason, tells us how he feels about this incredible achievement in the full article, available on Morson-group.com
