historical building with that of the students imaginations. laura ancell, bbc south today. more than 40,000 uk students will be able to study and work abroad from this september as part of the government s post brexit replacement of the erasmus exchange programme. more than 120 universities, as well as over 200 schools and further education colleges across the uk, will be awarded grants from the £110 million turing scheme. but labour says it doesn t do enough to target disadvantaged students. michelle donelan is the minister of state for universities. it replaces the eu scheme, erasmus, and what s different about it is it s going to be global in nature, so those placements you just referenced,
the city has recently marked winchester fashion week, with students from the winchester school of art repurposing dead stock burberry fabric. their creations were modelled in front of the former factory in tribute to the site. just to warn you, laura ancell s report contains some flash photography. thomas burberry opened his first shop in basingstoke in 1856 and was soon manufacturing half a million trench coats for the mod. i realised that as well as having a factory in basingstoke, you also had one in reading and another in winchester. but where was it? nobody seemed to know where it was. that is, until now. it has been confirmed it was here at the winchester churches nightshelter on jewry street. there was this hall full of young women with sewing machines making trench coats for the first world war and i think it is ironic in a way that that building still exists and has now found a new purpose to help people who need it.
