This Trust aims to encourage interest in field studies by providing modest financial support for expeditions and fieldwork which include the ‘study of the whole life of an area with major emphasis on the human community’.
The Geographical Association and the Frederick Soddy Trust work together each year to help primary and secondary schools fund geography field trips. There are two conditions attached to the awards: successful schools must submit a report on the project after the fieldwork has taken place and a statement acknowledging the Trust’s support must be included in the report.
