The charity was set up over 200 years ago by people running pubs who wanted to take care of others within their industry who were less fortunate. We are proud that our Charity continues to be at the heart of the pub community that is so valuable in today’s society.
The Charity has modernized and widened its remit since it was first established – with the addition of two types of school (Independent mainstream and Special Educational Needs) to give children the very best start in life.
