Wispers Trust
Visit WebsiteWispers Trust was founded following the closure and sale of Wispers School for Girls, Haslemere. An investment portfolio was created for the dedicated purpose of providing an interest-profit base that would be used to assist pupils whose education in Years 10-11 (GCSE) or Years 12-13 (A2) would be compromised by parents or guardians being unable to pay the fees, through no fault of their own. Recipients have to be resident in Hampshire, Sussex, Surrey or London.
