Richard Churcher Foundation
We have a proud history of philanthropy and community established by our founder, Richard Churcher in 1722. His original benefaction aimed to provide ten or twelve local boys from Petersfield with an education in the arts of writing, arithmetic, and navigation.
A Proud History of Philanthropy
Today, more than 50 families are supported by the Richard Churcher Foundation. Our aim is to further expand the number of bursaries offered, enabling more young people of promise and talent the opportunity to join our exceptional learning and pastoral environment.
