Old Radleian Charities

2023 was a busy year for fundraising by Old Radleians. We are aware of over £310,000 being raised for good causes across the world, and doubtless this is just the tip of the iceberg. Huge congratulations to all ORs who took part in challenges, events, and other endeavours to raise money for deserving charities that make a positive impact in so many walks of life.
