The University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) is committed to fostering inclusivity within the counselling profession by supporting students from underrepresented backgrounds. The Certificate in Counselling Skills Scholarship offers 50% off tuition fees for home (UK) students who hold an unconditional offer for the programme. Designed to encourage applications from those with non-traditional educational pathways, lived experience, or extensive related work, the scholarship aims to ease financial barriers for students who identify as part of the Global Majority, are from low-income households, or have disabilities. Two scholarships are available for the 2025/26 academic year, and applications must be submitted by 8 August 2025.
