Matthew Bacon Bursary Applications

The fund was set up in memory of Major Matthew Bacon, a former Surrey ACF cadet,
who was also an officer in the Intelligence Corps. Matthew was killed whilst on tour in Iraq in 2005.

Matthew was  a  keen  participant  in  many  types  of  adventurous  training,  as  this  formed  an important part of his life.  His parents set up a bursary in their son’s name as a means of celebrating his life. They chose the Outward Bound activity because they knew how much adventurous training developed Matthew during the time he was a cadet.
