Further information
The charity originated from the 1684 will of Sir William Boreman. He bestowed to The Drapers' Company a school he had founded in Greenwich, adjacent land, and arrangements for the endowment of the school.
As the original school no longer exists, the endowment now benefits other young people in the London Boroughs of Greenwich or Lewisham. The charity awards grants worth around £90,000 each year to individuals from low income or disadvantaged backgrounds.
