About The Charlie Bayne Travel Trust
This trust has been set up in the memory of Charlie Bayne (1965–90) who spent four years as an undergraduate at Trinity College, Cambridge in 1985–89. Paralysed from the shoulders downwards, he was looked after during that time by a series of volunteer carers. Charlie was an enthusiastic traveller. During his time at Cambridge he made many journeys both within the British Isles — to the north of Scotland and the west of Ireland — and further afield, reaching as far as Warsaw, St Petersburg and the southern United States. His carers or other friends went with him. Charlie gained great satisfaction and a sense of freedom from these travels which enriched his mind. Charlie died in July 1990. The Travel Trust has been created, from money he himself earned, to help other disabled students at Cambridge enjoy the same sort of experiences as he did. The fund has also benefited from donations given by family and friends in memory of Dominique Oliver (1978–1999), who herself was a recipient of a travel grant from the Trust in 1997 which she used to fund a trip to Italy.
