THE ROYAL PINNER SCHOOL FOUNDATION

Grants awarded to help with the education of the sons and daughters of commercial travellers, sales representatives and manufacturers' agents, where the family has suffered adversity, for children at state, private day or boarding schools, college or university. A parent must have travelled to sell to the trade or business, not direct to the public. Children usually aged between 4 to 25.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has a robust balance sheet
Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £4,284,414 available, equivalent to 82 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
