Telephone Campaigns

The Telephone Campaign is run by the Tonbridge Society with the specific objectives of raising money for the School’s Foundation Award bursary programme, and updating the community on forthcoming events and School news.

Since 2007 our young OT callers have raised over £1.5 million towards Foundation Awards. Thank you so much.

Telephone campaign 2024

The 2024 campaign has now finished. We are grateful to everyone who had a conversation with one of callers. Our team of nine callers spoke to over 300 OTs and Past Parents and have raised over £30,000 towards our Foundation Award programme.

Telethon calling team 2024. From Left to Right: George Adams (OH 15-20), Alex Lawrence (PS 15-20), David Hudson (CH 19-24), Ciarán Tansley (CH 19-24), Zane Khaleeque (CH 17-22), Ben Moore (WH 17-22), Kyle Heins (CH 17-22), Jack Isted (WW 21-23), Patrick Staunton (OH 18-23)

Recently, somebody asked me how I managed to remain so enthusiastic throughout the duration of the campaign. Whilst a cup of coffee every hour certainly helped; it was not knowing what the next conversation had in store that gave me the excitement to pick up the phone. I received so much great advice over the two weeks, ranging from career to wine tasting, and I will look back fondly on all of the phone calls that I had. Ultimately, the most rewarding thing for me was achieving my aim of raising money to help boys receive the same excellent education that I had at Tonbridge, for which I will be ever grateful.”
