Drumroll please... for our Bursary Winners!
Many congratulations to our conference bursary winners and thank you to everyone who applied. Sadly, we only had two places to give away but we hope to see you at this or a future conference if you were unsuccessful.
New Generation Bursary
Tomisona Olajire (Medway Council, Kent)
Tomisona is already a Senior Information Governance Officer at the Council and enjoys the responsibility and challenges of being a young professional in a large organisation, saying:
“Information governance is not just my job, it is something I genuinely care about”.
Tomisona’s application was very detailed, and the panel were impressed by her passion and commitment to translating conference insights into measurable improvements.
Diversity and Inclusion Bursary
Florence Jillett (University of the West of England, Cardiff)
Florence is a part-time Post Graduate Information Management student and student member of the IRMS. She works in the civil service and was inspired to apply for a bursary by colleagues who have attended the conference; and she can’t wait to experience it herself.
Florence has big plans to save the world through information management, so she will be a force to be reckoned with in the future!
We hope our winners have a wonderful conference and we look forward to a report of their experiences. If you are attending, please give them a big IRMS welcome.
You’ll need to get your skates on if you are planning to attend the conference! The main resort hotel fully booked and limited places remaining at the nearby hotel so book your place quickly if you would like to join us.
