Ninja Theory, the developers of the BAFTA-winning video game Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, recently teamed up with Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust and its charity Head to Toe to launch Senua's Scholarship. Focused on helping students improve their mental health and lead successful lives, the new scholarship was inspired by the developer's deep understanding of mental health after creating Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.
Announced through NHS and CPFT's website, the students awarded Senua's Scholarship will "be supported by the college team to develop their training skills and work towards training qualification." The ultimate goal is to help these students develop their mental health and skills, and aid them in finding a career in adult education. The scholarship will be open for applications from December 2018.
