Outsanding initiative continues
Former pupils Julia Bayton, Helen Pittaway, Feyi Raimi-Abraham and Biz Woosnam met for the AGM of the Old Penrhosian Provident Fund.
Mrs Bayton, said: "The fund has had a fairly quiet year so we thought it would be a good idea to remind people that we're here!
"The Fund exists to help former staff or pupils of Penrhos (must have spent at least part of your time at the Llanerch Road site), who find themselves in difficulties. We're funded by donations and bequests and are independent of the school.
"We're a small charity and can't help with large ongoing needs such as nursing home fees, but we aim to help people who find themselves in difficult circumstances to get back on their feet by giving small grants or loans.
"Please get in touch if you wish to apply for a grant, and share the info with any other Old Penrhosians you think could benefit. You can also get in touch with me directly, or with any of the other trustees, if you prefer."
