Friends of CFS (Fundraising)












Friends of CFS

We are very fortunate to have an active Friends of Cobham Free School which is an association of parents, teachers and other individuals and organisations that support the school. The main purpose of FoCFS is to advance the education of the pupils in the school, particularly by developing effective relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the school, and by engaging in activities or providing facilities, equipment or funding which support the school.

FoCFS organise a wide variety of fundraising events throughout the school year, including:

Support for Friends of CFS

FoCFS would welcome volunteers to help support the various projects and whole school social and fundraising events organised throughout the year. We have a critical role as parents to support these projects and fundraising efforts in a variety of ways be it financial, time, skills, ideas, organising, contacts and enthusiasm. Please contact FoCFS for further details or if you want to get involved in some capacity, at: friends@cobhamfreeschool.org.uk

The Committee 

There is a committee of elected members, who are responsible legally for the running of FoCFS. Elections are held annually in November.
