PFA (Parents & Friends Association)

The PFA (Parents and Friends Association) is a valuable asset to the school and can be a source of innovation and can also help provide additional people to help deliver an event, project or initiative.
School’s are increasingly looking at ways to increase income and our PFA fully supports that – have a look below at how well we did last year!
Next Event: Rainbow Raffle Mufti Day – 24th November

How can you help?
We organise many events throughout the year including, coffee mornings, Summer/Christmas Fayres, Bookwalks, Bearwood’s Got Talent and the School Disco.
By just supporting these events you are contributing to the PFA but if you are willing to help out at any events or can offer any expertise that would be very much appreciated.

Matched Giving or Matched Funding is a simple way of maximising the fundraising efforts. Not all companies offer matched funding but those that do (normally banks, building societies and large companies) will pledge a sum of money relating to the amount their employee has raised for or donated to the charity of their choice. Some organisations will match fund on a £ for £ basis, others will stipulate what they are prepared to give. Some companies will also pledge time and resources instead of money, so enabling their employees to support a cause during their working week.
