As a charity, we are a not for profit organisation. This means that we are run by a management committee made up of volunteer parents and carers of the children. We don't make any profit from the fees we charge, and we need to fundraise in order to make significant purchases to improve and maintain our learning environment. Fundraising also lets us keep down the costs we pass on to parents and carers.
How we are fundraising
We organise and host an annual Village Fete to come together as a community and raise money for our preschool. We have seasonal fundraising events throughout the year.
We regularly apply for grants from local businesses and trusts. You can see some of our successful applications below.

Fundraising via your online shopping
We’ve registered Tutshill Community Pre-School with easyfundraising.org.uk, which means over 7,000 brands will now donate to us for FREE every time you use #easyfundraising to shop with them. Fundraising partners include Tescos, Amazon, Marks & Spencer, John Lewis and loads more so you can raise money for us whether your buying your everyday groceries or special treats. These donations will help SO MUCH, so please sign up to support us – it’s completely FREE and doesn’t take long. |
Raise funds when you buy name labels
We ask that all lunchboxes and removable clothing (coats, waterproof, trousers, hats, hoodies, jumpers etc) are clearly labelled with your child's name. There are lots of ways to label your clothes. If you're looking for stickers or iron in labels, consider ordering through MyNameTags.com who will donate 24% of sales to our Pre-School when parents use our school ID is 66967 at the checkout. |
How we spend the funds we raise
Our staff are always observing the pre-schoolers and their interests and imagining how they could adapt the pre-school environment to nuture their interests. The funds we raise are spent on the more expensive resources and structures, that we can only afford to invest in by fundraising.
In recent years, we have received £2500 from Summerfield Trust for Nature Tots equipment, we 'won' the Tesco 'Bags of Help' scheme, which enabled us to buy our interactive whiteboard. In 2020 we were awarded £1000 by the National Lottery, which we've spent on a new bespoke outdoor reading nook, which the children love, and another £1000 towards the garden, again from Tesco. In 2021, our successful Summer Fete raised nearly £2000 to enable re-landscaping our outdoor space. In 2023, we received a £500 grant from Admiral to purchase new iPads for staff to record the pre-schooler's learning journeys.

Can you help?
We are always looking for members to join our committee. You can give as little or as much time as you can, any help is always greatly received! We meet on the last Tuesday of every month at the Pre-School at 7:45pm.
If you work for/know of a company that offers matched funding to charities, we’d love to hear from you. When we hold events or win grants, it would be great to double that money with any matched funding. Alternatively, if you work for/know of a company that could offer services to the pre-school or raffle prizes for events then that would be a huge help as well.
Thank you!
Thanks to everyone who has supported us over the years in whatever capacity. We hugely appreciate your help.
