The Origins of the Fund

The fund originated in 1952 from a bequest from a previous Secretary of HMC, W. A. Bulkeley-Evans.  The original scheme laid down that grants were to be made to suitable boys in HMC schools going to Commonwealth universities. There were very few applicants, and the capital in the fund appreciated considerably.  In 1987 the Charity Commission agreed a scheme whereby grants could be made to boys in HMC schools going on gap year projects. In September 2001, after protracted negotiations, the Charity Commission agreed to a scheme whereby scholarships could be granted to "pupils" so that the awards are now open to girls as well as boys.
