As its Founding Patron, it is with great pride that I introduce you to the 1541 Society – a regular giving club for friends who support the School with a recurring annual, quarterly or monthly gift.

As many of you will know, my connection to the school runs deep. Over the years, I have had the privilege of serving as Governor, and now Governor Emerita, during which time, I have witnessed first-hand the profound impact that a King’s education can have on a young person’s life.

The 1541 Society represents a vital opportunity for us to open the School to a broader range of young people, whether this is through supporting transformational bursaries or our partnership programmes, such as Sounding Out. Our members’ generosity opens doors to experiences that shape futures and inspire aspirations, and for this we are enormously grateful.

Lady Kingsdown, Patron of the 1541 Society
