The trustees of The Radnage Charity (registered name since September 2024) plan to provide financial awards to children of Radnage residents.
The Charity traces its origins to the Poor Laws passed in the late 16th century during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and established by order of King Charles I in 1631.
In meeting the charity’s educational aims, trustees wish to ensure that its funds are used to benefit the village’s young who may not otherwise be able to enjoy the opportunities they deserve.
Grants
The initial application process is simple. The child or older student – with help from parents if needed – should apply in writing, setting out the educational purpose for which a contribution could make all the difference. This should be emailed to charity.clerk@radnage.net. The trustees meet 4 times a year – February, June, September and December when applications are discussed. It is helpful if submissions are made in good time for these meetings.
Bursaries
Bursaries are offered as a long-term educational support based on various criteria of need.
Awards may be directed towards young people for whom it would not be possible to access aspects of their further education without additional financial support.
Bursaries may also be awarded for children or young people, who have proven abilities, be it academic or extra curricula the pursuit of which is placing a strain on the parents’ financial resources.
