City of London School's 2012 Bursary Trust Gala Dinner promises to be as celebratory an occasion as the 2010 event with the Tate Modern once again the venue for this major fundraising event.

At the 2010 event sufficient funds were raised, together with match-funding from the City of London Corporation, to support five boys for a seven year period each at the School. This has literally transformed the life chances of these clever boys who normally would not be able to contemplate an education at the City of London School.

Guest speakers and entertainers in the past have included Midge Ure, Michael Portillo, Diane Abbott and Gerald Ratner. The 2012 event looks set to be as entertaining as on previous occasions.

If you would like to host a table of 10 in the School’s anniversary year, either at your own cost of £3,000 or by inviting friends to contribute towards the table, please contact the Alumni Relations Officer.

If you should decide to take a table, all the relevant letters and tickets will be provided for you to ‘top and tail’ for your guests in order to keep the process hassle-free!
