The Friends of Great Rollright School is managed by a group of Trustees; however, it consists of parents, carers, staff, grandparents, and friends who collaborate to plan events and activities aimed at raising funds for the school.
These funds may either have charitable status or be allocated to cover expenses not covered by the school budget. Our primary aim remains constant: to advance pupil education and support the school community.
Everyone is welcome to come along to meetings whenever they can. Our meetings are very informal!
We produce a regular newsletter which can be found here
If you cannot attend meetings but would like to support events, please email greatrollrightfriends@gmail.com
