Haddenham Parochial Charities

Published: 12 February 2025

New Trustees Needed for the Parochial Charities of Haddenham.

Do you have a couple of hours to spare – approximately three times a year?
Are you interested in helping Haddenham residents who are in need?
Then becoming a Trustee for the Parochial Charities could be for you !

The Parochial Charities consists of three registered ancient charities: Joseph Franklin (204185), Alms Corn (237265) and Revd John Willis (205529) – who own the allotment site. The charities historically provided bread and coal to the poor at Christmas, and seed corn on Good Friday. Nowadays, the Trustees use the charities income to provide a gift to residents in need at Christmas time. The existing Trustees have been providing this service for a number of years and are now looking for additional people to volunteer and become a Trustee.
