Nicholas Almond Charity

The Nicholas Almond Cuddington Charity dates back to 1643.  Nicholas Almond, who lived in Haddenham and died in 1643, left Cuddington a parcel of land called Poors Moor.  His original intention was that the income from this land be used to give assistance to poor people living in Cuddington with the purchase of food, coal, clothing, etc., and also for some villagers to purchase apprenticeships.

Over the centuries, inevitably the value of the land has diminished considerably, with the income from the land becoming smaller.  In the early 1950s it was decided that the income from the land was insufficient to continue with the original aims and that the money would be better used to help young people resident in Cuddington with the cost of going into further education or taking up an apprenticeship.

Each autumn, the Charity’s Trustees encourage any young person, who must be resident in Cuddington and is going into or is already in further education or is wishing to take up an apprenticeship this autumn, to apply for a grant.  The grants are not large, but they can be helpful with some of the expenses incurred by students or apprentices, such as the purchase of books or equipment, paying for a field trip, etc.

Charity number: 237677
