THE LYNAM EDUCATIONAL FUND 

Grant making to support, where such relief is needed, bursaries or scholarships for children at the Dragon School, employees or former employees of the Dragon School, and other charitable purposes connected with the Dragon School or otherwise.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
