IMPORTANT NOTICE - CLOSURE OF GLOBAL EDUCATION DERBY

During the past two years, Global Education Derby has been unable to find new sources of funding to support its activity and no longer has sufficient capacity to effectively pursue its charitable objectives. Our Trustees, having monitored the developing situation, now recommend the closure of the charity.
 
On 11 July 2023, a Special General Meeting was held and the majority of our members voted in favour of the recommendation – therefore, Global Education Derby will be closing at the end of August 2023.
 
If you would like to read about our history and legacy, here is a link to our final newsletter:  https://sway.office.com/NqyUBXkBatPEqG1U?ref=Link
 
We would like to thank you all for your support over the years and wish you all the best for the future.
