About the charity
Rooted in school life and built around community.
Friends of Crampton exists to celebrate and strengthen Crampton Primary School by raising money and creating fun opportunities for children, parents, carers and the wider community. At the heart of our mission is a belief that every child deserves a rich, broad education — and that a connected community is the foundation for that to happen.
We work to raise the level of education and empower local families through learning, enrichment and access to opportunity. By reducing barriers, widening participation and backing the school's priorities, we help ensure that where a child grows up never limits what they can achieve.
What that means in practice
- Supporting school priorities with additional fundraising.
- Running welcoming events that families genuinely want to attend.
- Acting as a practical bridge between school staff, families and providers.
What we do
Three practical ways we support children and families.
Our role is broad enough to strengthen the whole school community, while staying clear, approachable and useful.
Fundraising & family events
We organise enjoyable community events that build connection, celebrate school life and create positive fundraising moments.
After-school club coordination
We support access to a wide range of after-school clubs — sports, creative, nature and themed activities — helping connect school staff, families and external providers so every child can take part, regardless of circumstance.
Events
Fundraising events that feel joyful, local and easy to join.
Friends of Crampton has supported school fundraising through events such as fairs and sponsored activities, and the site can easily be updated with your next events.

After-school clubs
Opening doors to enrichment, confidence and new experiences.
We support a wide range of after-school clubs that stretch beyond the school day — giving children access to sports, creative arts, nature and themed activities they might not otherwise encounter. For many families, these clubs are transformative: building skills, raising confidence and broadening horizons in a safe, supported environment.
We also understand the realities facing many families. After-school clubs provide a trusted, structured option for working parents and single parents who need reliable care and enrichment beyond the school bell.
- Builds new skills and confidence outside the classroom.
- Provides experiences that financial barriers can otherwise prevent.
- Supports working parents and single parents with reliable after-school options.
- Connects school, families and trusted external providers clearly and consistently.

Donate
Every penny makes a real difference.
Your donations are invested directly and thoughtfully into the things that matter most — equipment and resources that support the day-to-day curriculum, and the tools needed to run after-school clubs well. We are genuinely grateful for every contribution and treat every penny with care.
- Classroom equipment and resources that support everyday teaching and learning.
- Club equipment so after-school activities can run safely and effectively.
- Enrichment experiences and events that benefit all children at the school.
- Small grants that make a visible, lasting impact on school life.
Could your organisation sponsor us?
We are actively looking for local businesses and organisations in Southwark, London Bridge and Westminster who share our belief that every child deserves the best possible start.
Sponsorship can take many forms — a regular monetary contribution, prizes and vouchers for our fundraising events, or equipment donations for clubs and activities. Every form of support helps us set up more extracurricular activities and events that benefit the children directly.
