Prize is funded by a legacy from Dr Manindra Kumar Dhole, a BGS member who died in 1977. The prize is so named to commemorate the anniversary of his marriage with Dr Elizabeth Eddlestone. In 2018, the dormant prize was relaunched and process agreed for awarding to authors of <em>Age and Ageing</em> papers.</p> <p>One cash prize of £1,000 is made each year and announced as near as possible to the 14th January, the anniversary of the date of Dr Dhole and Dr Eddlestone’s marriage.
