The Public Meeting of 6 February agreed to set up a Fighting Fund to pay for legal advice and representation to stop the Slough-based education company from setting up a secondary school in Stoke Poges.

The Fund is now accepting contributions, by cheque only. Make your cheque payable to ‘Stoke Poges Parish Council’ and ensure that you give your name and address.

Our Clerk will record all contributions received and in the event of a surplus, ensure that it is returned to contributors pro rata. Please post your contribution in the letterbox next to the side entrance of the Village Centre. (There is no need to ring the bell and hand over your contribution in person).

A set of accounts detailing payments will be made available in due course and will be subject to the Parish Council’s regular audit.
