Benefits of a boarding school education

If I hadn't have gone to boarding school then I probably wouldn't have carried on with education up to 'A' levels and wouldn't be focused on education in the way I am now. I found it easier to work when everyone around me was motivated.

What we do

We believe every child deserves the chance to thrive and to look forward to a healthy, happy, and fulfilling adult life. When young people are offered the right support, family problems and disadvantage need not continue through the generations.

Where your money goes

Most of the families we work with are struggling to care for their children due to disability or long term mental or physical ill health; every penny raised goes directly towards transforming the lives of vulnerable children.
