Friends
of Sherborne House
 |
|
The
Friends have an active involvement with the running of the
House. They run an programme of events ranging from purely
social to academic lectures and day seminars. These usually
have a historical or artistic theme that is relevant to Sherborne
House. All proceeds, of course, are directed to funds for
the benefit of the house. A major fund-raising initiative
is the Sherborne House Endowment Fund. This aims to raise
£100,000 in 2007 which will be invested to produce an income.
It is most important that the project is independent of external
grants.
