This scholarship honours the contribution to literature of the internationally-renowned novelist and short story writer, William Trevor. In addition to his work as a writer, marked by the award of a CBE in 1977 and a KBE in 2002, he instigated and continues to finance the annual Trevor/Bowen International Short Story award.
