Benefactors, Patrons,
Donations and Legacies
With your contributions
and commitment to
Winchester we have
achieved a great deal.
During 2016 – 2017 you have
donated a total of £3,514,000, all
of which is being used to support
our main fundraising priority,
bursaries, and other much-needed
projects. All of these are entirely
funded by your support.
The Shedden Bursary Fund
for Quiristers
Five Quiristers were supported
by this Fund, enabling them to
benefit from a choral education.
We are pleased to announce that
the £1.5 million endowment
target has now been reached.
The Golf Bursary Fund
In total five boys have benefited
from the GBF, three of whom
are currently in the school. So
far £2.5 million has been secured
towards the £3 million target.
House Bursary Funds
Since their launch five years ago
£780,000 has been raised for
specific Houses to help boys benefit
from a Winchester education.
Projects funded by the Annual Fund
One-off and regular donations
to the Annual Fund, as well as
‘unspecified’ donations are all used
to support a variety of projects
and are spent in the financial year.
These include equipment for the
Natural History Society, sports
coaching, conservation of the
ancient buildings, Beer Cellar
refurbishment for Collegemen,
design and technology equipment
and visiting performers.
The Telephone Campaign is an
important element of the Annual
Fundraising programme. We
would like to thank all OWs
and parents who took part, who
had good conversations with
our young OWs, gave them some
invaluable careers advice and
of course supported the Annual
Fund. In total we raised £308,000,
plus the additional £31,250 from
some very generous parents who
agreed to be our challenge donors.
The next telephone campaign
will be taking place this summer,
from 9 July – 23 July.
Thank you all for your continued
support and encouragement over
the past year.
