FIPS Partnership

FIPS is committed to supporting a variety of charitable causes and initiatives, with decisions made to maximize the impact of its budget.

The key areas of FIPS spending are:

Partnership Decision Panel (PDP) : Allocates funds raised by FIPS to local charities.

Matched Funding Initiative : Matches pupil fundraising efforts up to £500, continuing its success this year.

Bursary Support : Funds a full bursary for a Hurlingham Academy pupil and helps cover additional costs for pupils receiving school bursaries.

This year, the following allocations and projects have been approved:

FIPS PDP has decided to share its annual budget of £6,000 equally among four organisations: (i) Rackets Cubed, (ii) Regenerate, (iii) Shooting Star Hospices, and (iv) Paddock School, with £1,500 allocated to each. FIPS has had another successful year with its Matched Funding Initiative, which matches pupil fundraising up to £500. The initiative has allocated £2,930 of its annual £6,000 budget to various charities chosen by pupils, with an additional £1,200 in projects planned for this year. The remaining balance of approximately £1,870 (pending final figures from Bursary) will be directed to the Community Box (of Rackets Cubed), in line with the FIPS Committee’s decision.
