“To increase the number of people entering the explosives industry by investing in people who are in their early careers, together with assisting with the career progression and development of those already working within the industry from all sectors.”
Grants are available for research both in the theoretical and practical sides of explosives engineering. The research must be in topics which are of use to the industry or the general public and the information obtained must be made freely available.
The Trust has been set up principally for the benefit of the UK explosives industry. Grants will not normally be available to commercial concerns and means testing may be applied when considering grants to individuals.
