Description

The Big Give is the UK’s leading online matched-funding platform, founded by entrepreneur and philanthropist Sir Alec Reed CBE. In 2021, Central was one of the 924 charities taking part in the Big Give’s Christmas Challenge. During the seven days of the challenge in early December and with generous support from the Reed Foundation, Gareth Neame and Alison Love, all donations made to Central’s Christmas Challenge were doubled. An overwhelming number of friends of the School chose to donate in order to support Central students.
