What the Friends are Doing This Year

Currently we are funding in-full the refurbishment of the Village Row area, from the school to the Panhard garage and including Cherry Tree Cottage.  This should be completed this year and be opened on our 50th Anniversary event on 21st September 2025 by Baroness Gillian Shephard (who was one of our original Friends members).
