The aim of the Trust is to assist those parents who, having selected private education for their child with reasonable expectations of being able to meet the considerable costs from their own resources, are unable to pay the fees as a result of genuine hardship, arising from an unforeseen change of circumstances.

Grants are made at the sole discretion of the Trustees.

We assist Sixth Form students to continue at their existing fee-paying school after a loss of family income due to an unexpected crisis. In most cases the school will already have agreed to provide significant financial assistance.

The Naval Children's Charity is the only charity dedicated to supporting children whose parents work, or have worked, for the Naval Service.

We can support with educational costs for children where at least one parent is, or has recently been, a sales representative, selling business to business, with a significant element of travel and whose family circumstances have been affected by adversity.

Royal Hospital School is a leading, co-educational boarding and day school, with a unique naval heritage, that provides a full and broad education fit for the modern world, set in 200 acres of stunning Suffolk countryside overlooking the River Stour.
