The Reedham Trust is a grant making body which supports children throughout the UK who, through the death or disablement of one or both parents, are in urgent need of assistance and care or who are at risk or cannot be cared for adequately in the home environment. The children may also have special needs from having suffered psychologically because of disruptive or damaging home lives. The Trust provides grants to children whose home circumstances are so unsatisfactory that a boarding school placement is essential in order to provide them with the stable and caring environment they so desperately need. Consideration is given to finding the most appropriate school for the child so that talents can be fostered and difficulties understood. However, the whole emphasis of the Trust is on boarding need rather than educational need. The Trust is currently able to provide annual financial support in the region of £320,000, which contributes towards the care of around 130 children in approximately 60 boarding schools throughout the UK. These are the fortunate ones. There are many more vulnerable children throughout the UK who would benefit from the help of the Trust. The office at the Reedham Trust is currently staffed by four part time workers. The office is normally open from Monday to Thursday between the hours of 9.30 am and 4.00 pm. Reedham values the support it receives from its many friends, local businesses and commerce.
