The Community Helping Us

The Community Helping Us

Over the last few years fundraising has been much harder due to the pandemic restricting fundraising opportunities. The Bradley Barton PTFA have been amazing and have still managed to put on a range of online and community events raising over £7000 in 2021-22.

We have also been very fortunate to get support from many other organisations. 

The Helen Foundation

The Helen Foundation have given us support for many years by funding events and the creation of community artwork. They have also provided funding to allow individual pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds with musical talent to access music tuition. The Helen Foundation also paid for school to purchase the licence for ‘Oliver’ the musical.  Bradley Barton pupils benefit greatly from the wonderful work they do including our wonderful wooden sculptures!
