Focus on…. Our grants service

For a large part of our history, we have offered financial assistance to teachers, teaching assistants, supply & support staff, lecturers and retired staff.

Since April last year, we have seen a significant increase in demand for our financial grants with more and more education staff finding themselves struggling to keep a roof over their heads and feed their families. An alarming number are even being forced to use food banks.

As one of our loyal and valued donors, we thought you’d like to know a bit more about our grants service as you are enabling us to keep this important part of our work going. Even if you’re retired you are still able to apply for a grant should you need our help and meet the criteria.
