We ask all Herschel Alumnae to support their alma mater and current pupils in whatever small way they can. Unlike boys’ schools, girls’ schools and their alumnae associations are not well supported financially by their ‘old girl unions’. We invite you to setup a debit order, make a once-off donation or bequeath an amount to the HAU so that we may support girls through the Bursary Relief Fund and Scholarship Programmes. The AGM minutes and Chair’s Annual Report outline how these funds are used to support pupils who are in deepest need.
