We did know that Darth Vader was from Bristol. We even know where he went to school... @OldBristolians #BGSFamily https://t.co/6ZW31P6Kle
Legacies
Leaving a legacy to the school in your will is one of the most powerful and lasting gifts that can be made. Legacy bequests have tax advantages for both the School and your family because they are free of Inheritance Tax and gifts of shares and property are exempt from Capital Gains Tax. If you have already made a Will, you can add a codicil in consultation with your solicitor or legal adviser.
Regular giving
Regular contributions create a huge impact. A £500 donation would equate to just two years paying £15.32 a month (with Gift Aid). 60 donors, contributing this amount, over two years means a full bursary for a girl or boy at Sixth Form.
All regular donations are used to support children of all ages throughout the school.
Sponsor a student
100% bursaries are offered to those in genuine need of the full amount and are often given to those who demonstrate real promise and ability at Sixth Form level. Donors can choose to sponsor a student individually or as a collective group of friends. Additional sponsorship opportunities are available to support younger children.

The 1532 Society
This exclusive group has been created to acknowledge and thank everyone from our donor community and those who make the decision to leave a gift to the school in their will.
Members of the Society are invited as our guests to an exclusive annual event to see the school, hear from the Headmaster and to meet the boys and girls of Bristol Grammar School.
