The Paul Golmick Fund
The Paul Golmick Fund is a Trust, separate from
The Insurance Charities, set up to promote the maintenance
and education of children and young people under
the age of 24, but primarily under the age of 18,
who reside in the UK or Republic of Ireland and who
have at least one parent or guardian with service
to the insurance industry.
Applications are considered via the Grants sub-committee
of The Insurance Charities and payments considered
in the form of scholarships, exhibitions, bursaries
and maintenance allowances.
One example of help given is the case of Jacob
Baker - a young musician who had been offered a place
at the Guildhall School of Music to further his talents
in piano and violin. His family approached the Fund
to see if help could be given to enable Jacob to
take up the place he had been offered but which the
family could not easily finance. Members agreed that
support would be appropriate and Jacob has, for the
past two years, benefited from the expert tuition
at the School.
