 *** Remember - You can apply for the Simon Brooke Bursay .

This bursary has been set up in the memory of Simon Brooke.
Simon was a BASI Ski Teacher working in France, tragically in August 2003 Simons life was cut short when he was killed in a car crash.
His family and friends have raised money and donated these funds to Disability Snowsports UK so that people with disabilities could experience the fun and thrill of being involved in snowsports, something which Simon would approve of.

One of Simons closest friends and mentor, BASI Trainer Gareth Roberts has, since this tragic accident organised an annual ski race named the Brookie Bowl which is held in Courchevel. The aim of this is to keep Simons memory alive by raising funds for Disabilty Snowsports to ensure the continuation of this bursary.

After discussions with Mike, Pippa and James, his parents and brother, some of the money went towards buying a childs Bi-Ski. They were keen to buy other equipment but it was decided that a bursary should be established in Simons name so that BASI qualified Instructors would be able to train in the techniques of Adaptive Ski teaching.

Why should you take the course?
The course will stretch your teaching techniques and give you a better insight and understanding of peoples abilities not diabilities. It will make you more employable by providing you with a second discipline. Most importantly will also advance the possibilities for more people to enjoy this great sport we all enjoy so much.

To apply for the bursary of £400 please send your CV and a letter of support from either the organisation or the Ski School you work for before the start of the course to:
