The Cecil Renaud Trust is a KwaZulu-Natal-based educational trust that has funded outstanding young South Africans to pursue postgraduate study in the United Kingdom since 1994, awarding 38 scholarships to date.
The Trust deliberately restricts eligibility to students schooled in KwaZulu-Natal because it was established to serve that specific province, rather than as a national programme - it funds a small number of exceptional candidates each year rather than spreading a larger budget across many partial awards.
There is no formal employment work-back obligation. The Trust's stated goal is to develop future leaders with "a drive to succeed and uplift South Africa" - it invests in advanced overseas qualifications on the expectation that recipients will bring that expertise home, not through a binding contract.
