The GAP programme prioritises young adults 16-30 years living in disadvantaged backgrounds in Bristol – applications from across /outside the city will only be considered if places permit.
“GAP is based on consultation with young people and communities of Bristol, a year’s research through a fellowship at Bristol Universities – School of Education. In short, there is nothing like this.”
