Mary Parnham Trust Fund

In the past an Educational Trust was set up by Mary Parnham to benefit the children of Lyddington. Eventually the trust was closed and the remaining monies was divided between St Andrew’s Church, the Village Hall Trustees and Lyddington Parish Council. The small amount of remaining money is used today to fund educational pursuits planned for children who are resident in the village.
