    Story

    Jane Duffield was a loved member of each of the London Guiding Associations. In memory of her life we're raising money that will be used to support students unable to afford guide training to enrol for classes. One of her aspirations was to widen the scope of people who could benefit from this frequently life-changing skill.

    Jane was the Course Director of the Camden Tour Guides' Association. The association will match contributions £1 for £1 up to £2,500.

    If we are successful at raising money we hope to create the Jane Duffield Bursary as a charity, managed by trustees from the guiding associations.

    The first bursaries are likely to be awarded for the next Camden Tour Guides' Association course, once its new Course Director is appointed.

      Update from the Page owner

      Many thanks to all who have donated to the Jane Duffield bursary - we've achieved our goal of £2,500 on Justgiving, and also have more than £1000 in the Camden Guides bank account - so that's a huge result. We should be able to provide a lot of support for future guides who are unable to afford the full cost of CTGA and CIGA courses, and broaden the base of tour guides in London.

      Huge thanks to everyone, and we've now officially achieved our target - because as well as the £1,300 currently listed here, we have collected £1,290 from donations to the CTGA bank account. And the £2,500 target will be matched on a £1:£1 basis by both CTGA and CIGA - so we're now over £7,500. We're still keen to see more donations - the more we collect, then the more bursaries we can provide to future students. The appeal on Justgiving will remain open for the time being. David Brown

      As well as the money kindly donated on justgiving, as of this morning we've also collected £1110 in the CTGA bank account - so we're now just under £2000. Really many thanks to all those who have contributed so far. David Brown

      A wonderful idea - Jane would have been so in sync with this. She will be sadly missed but what a lovely legacy. x
