100 free places funded in 2025

Last year your community came together to fund 100 full-cost bursaries — the largest number in our history.

Where it came from

Forty-two regular givers stepped up their monthly gifts. Sixteen alumni made transformational five-figure commitments. And our Be The Change campaign in March brought in just over £1.2m from 1,024 individual donors.

What it means

A hundred children whose families couldn't otherwise consider us are now thriving here. Some came from refuges. Some came from kinship care. Some came from families where simply paying rent each month is a real question.

We have a waiting list of 220 more. That's what next year is for.
