In talking with Quensland Kendo Association president, Tom Johnson sensei, Tom-san mentioned that a present no one has accessed one of the Association’s first aid bursaries that were announced at last year’s annual general meeting.
The bursaries will provide up to $115 towards the cost of a senior first aid (or equivalent) course or a CPR update. They are open to any adult member of the QKR (16 years or older) who has been an active member of their home dojo for a period of six months or more.
My understanding is that the bursaries are limited, and it is a case of first in first served, and that you are able to access them once every three years.
So for all QKR members who may read this post, regardless of whether you are a BBRD member or not, please talk to your home dojo sensei to get the paperwork for the bursary application.
