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

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.

We are a British national children's educational charity, which provides funding for the needy British children of Merchant Navy seafarers, professional sea-going fishermen and RNLI lifeboat crew members, who have served or are serving at sea and who are unable to meet their children's educational needs. Our Patron is HM The Queen and our President is HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, KG, KT, OM.

Christ's Hospital is a remarkable school; it is the UK's leading charitable school and largest bursary charity. The School was established in 1552 and provides free or substantially reduced cost places to over 630 of its 900 pupils each year. Our pupils come from every possible ethnic and socio-economic background, bringing a social and cultural diversity that enriches our school community, and makes us unlike any other independent school in the UK. Through first-class education and exceptional pastoral support, Christ's Hospital provides each pupil with stability and the opportunity to thrive and fulfil their potential. 98% of pupils go on to university and leavers take with them the confidence and resilience they will need to achieve success at university and beyond and to make a meaningful contribution to society.
