One of the largest providers of scholarships and grants for the surgical community worldwide is the RACS Foundation for Surgery’s Scholarships and Grants Program, which offers two rounds of applications each year.

Consultant colorectal surgeon Mr Ryash Vather was awarded a ​Bongiorno National Network Younger Fellows Travel Grant to undertake a prestigious six-month pelvic exenteration fellowship at St Marks in London.

He discusses the opportunity, and his advice for others who might be thinking of applying.
