In August 2021 the School and Gresham’s Foundation launched an endowment fund appeal honouring the late, great Logie Bruce-Lockhart and his impact on Old Greshamians: the Bruce-Lockhart Fund appeal. The endowment fund is the first of its kind within the Foundation and will support means-tested awards for Gresham’s pupils in perpetuity. It will help to open doors to those who would otherwise not have the chance to come to Gresham’s and will complement the ongoing and significant impact of the Gresham’s Foundation Bursary Fund.
As outlined in this booklet (mobile-friendly version), the aim is to build up a substantial fund that will in turn support a growing number of young people with Bruce-Lockhart Awards. It will help secure means-tested support at Gresham’s and further widen access to the School, and will provide opportunities to attend Gresham’s to those who display talent or promise in one or more field.
Donating to the Fund
As of 30th September 2022 close to £300,000 has been pledged to the Fund. This is a most heartening response and a great show of support from the Gresham’s community which means that the first two Bruce-Lockhart Awards will be made for entry in September 2023.
