YTD Raised: £9,528.96

Charities Administered Icw The Honourable Society Of The Middle Temple (UK, 314246) Browse events

YTD Raised: £9,526.79

Middle Temple has been awarding scholarships on a substantial basis since 1877. Its primary purpose is to ensure that those of real ability (and whom it believes can succeed) are not precluded from coming to the Bar by a lack of financial resources. The principal criteria for awarding scholarships are the quality of the applicant and his/her commitment to the principles of independent practice. All scholarships are awarded on merit. Once identified as a scholar of the Inn, the amount awarded is tailored to ensure that significant assistance is given to those able students most in need. Middle Temple interviews every single applicant for a scholarship and, uniquely, always takes account of means when assessing the value of any scholarship awarded. The Inn believes that it has a track record of funnelling the money where it is most needed and to people, regardless of their background, who will ultimately be a credit to the profession and the administration of justice.

Surgeons at the Centre perform vascular neurosurgery (to repair aneurysms, haemorrhages and the like), on hundreds of patients each year. By equipping one of the Centre's operating theatres with a new, state-of-the-art operating microscope fitted with the FL800 Fluorescence system, most of these patients will benefit. Fluorescence Enhanced Neurosurgery enables surgeons to clearly visualise blood-flow in adjacent brain tissue, reducing the possibility of either a recurrence of the bleed, or of a post-operative stroke.
