Rooted in Bedales values, the Fund helps broaden access to the school.
The Bedales Grants Trust Fund (BGTF) was founded in 1927 to provide funding for financial support through bursaries for students at Bedales, particularly (but not exclusively) those with Old Bedalian connections. Over its long existence it has, through a combination of generous lifetime giving and legacies, been able to provide the school with significant funding to enable bursaries for students in need of fee support during their time at Bedales.
The BGTF is a registered charity (No.1036179) which is independent from the school and governed by independent trustees. The current trustees are Dennis Archer (Bedales staff 1974-2008), Cathy Baxandall, Chair (nee Dwyer, OB 1970-76), Camilla Church (OB 1989-92), Stephen Davies (OB 1989-94), Josephine Jonathan (OB 2006-08) and Lynn Pearcy (OB 1972-77).
New donations to BGTF, whether lifetime or by means of a legacy in a will, are always welcome.
