In the charity's own words
The Marlborough Mariners is a families and carers forum working closely with the headteacher and staff of Marlborough School, Falmouth, to run events and activities. Whilst many of our activities are aimed at fundraising, just as important to us is building the school community. We use funds raised to support curriculum enhancement (e.g. trips, external visitors to school) and one-off projects.
