Endowment
Some of the money Stan Tarry left the Association is available as an
endowment and members are invited to apply for a contribution towards
suitable educational events that would improve their knowledge and
understanding of the organ and its music, or ability to play the
instrument. There is no specific 'blue-print' to determine who or what
might be eligible and no age limit either, but your Committee will
expect to receive constructive reasons in support of an application.
Considerations will be given to such things as assistance towards the
costs of the R.C.O. examinations; a professional tutorial for a specific
occasion; (recital/study/research); a study course for a particular
project; attendance at the I.A.O. London Organ Day, Midlands Organ Day
or similar event. In fact the N&DOA Committee will consider anything
that's relevant and appropriate in fulfilling the aims of the
Association's constitution.
The endowment can be applied for at anytime by writing initially to the
Hon. Secretary with details.
