Supporting Charities

At King Edward VI Lordswood School for Girls we are very proud to support a number of charitable causes throughout the year. As part of their remit, the School Council and Student Leadership Team are responsible for organising all fundraising events and always ensure that local, national and international charities benefit from the School’s support.

As a whole school, King Edward VI Lordswood School for Girls annually raises money for  Children In Need, Comic Relief, Sport Relief and the British Legion Poppy Appeal and to date, has raised tens of thousands of pounds to support these causes over the years.  Individual year groups also support a charity of their choosing each year.  Charities such as Anti-racism Wear it red, DEC, Water Aid, NSPCC and UNICEF have all benefited from King Edward VI Lordswood School for Girls support in the past. Popular fundraisers include non-uniform days, raffles, photo booths, sponsored runs and splat the teacher!
