Now in its second year, Aurivo established and sponsors the programme in memory of Paddy Gaffney and Sean Mulleady who died tragically in 2013. The recipients of last year’s inaugural awards were Sarah Burke from Co Sligo and Thomas Whyte from Co Longford, who both went on to study agricultural science in University College Dublin.
“Aurivo values the hard work and dedication it takes to pursue a career in an agri-related profession and this is a fantastic educational opportunity for young people from Aurivo’s catchment area,” said the chair of Aurivo, Pat Duffy. “I would strongly encourage students who are enrolling in agriculture, food or nutrition courses for the 2018-2019 academic year to submit an application.”
