In 2026 the Turners’ Company have offered bursaries to help talented turners develop their skills and to move to a higher level of achievement. Applicants needed to present a clear plan of how the award would advance their work and raise the profile of hte craft. A total of £12,000 was available.
We had an unprecedented number of applications and it was very difficult to choose our final awardees. However, we are proud ot announce our impressive list of turners here, who have all won awards of varying amounts.
