OA Endowment Fund
Marcus Graham stepped down as Trustee in December 2015 and the Trustees will maintain a full complement in 2016 through the welcome arrival of Peter Jolly (72-80; Director of Drama at the College). Nick Rundle has assumed the role of Hon. Secretary and Peter Petyt that of Hon Treasurer. David Johns (52-60) was Independent Examiner of the OAEF’s accounts, for which the trustees are immensely grateful. Activity in 2015 The Trustees are pleased to report a busy 2015. During 2015 there were 19 Old Alleynian beneficiaries (2014: 17) who had been advanced funds by the OAEF, two of whom completed repayments in full during the year. Loans totalling £21,000 (2014: £27,700) were advanced to three young men (2014: 7) during the year. In addition, a grant of £5,000 (2014: £5,000) was made to the Master’s Fund that enabled a number of pupils at the College to receive cash contributions towards the cost of educational trips. Donations During the year the fund received a generous donation from the Alleyn Club. The Trustees are naturally very grateful for this donation and extend their very sincere thanks.
Chairman: Ivor Warburton (57-65) Hon Secretary: Nick Rundle (69-76) Email: rundnicky @ yahoo.co.uk Aims
Established in 1932, the Fund provides financial assistance to OAs and pupils at the College for their education or for training for an occupation or profession. Assistance is almost always given in the form of an interest-free loan, to be repaid when the beneficiary’s financial situation allows, often in instalments; but help may exceptionally be given as an outright grant. The Trustees may also transfer up to 5% of the Fund’s assets annually to The Master’s Fund for disbursement to current pupils in connection with one- off co-curricular activities. Trustees The Fund is administered by six Trustees, who in 2015 were Ivor Warburton (57-65; Chairman), Marcus Graham (90-98; Hon Secretary), Nick Rundle (69-76; Hon Treasurer), Tom Woudhuysen (97-04), Peter Petyt (75-81) and James Rosslyn-Smith (97-04). The Master is invited to attend Trustee meetings.
