Our Work
Our Work
At the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson School Charity, we’re here to help every student at EGA thrive; academically, socially, and personally. Together with our community of supporters, we fund initiatives that enrich learning, promote wellbeing, and open up new opportunities.
Our focus is on creating fairness and access for all, especially for students who may be facing additional challenges. We believe no young person should be held back by financial barriers and we’re committed to making sure every student can take part in all that EGA has to offer.
