HENRY SMITH CLUB

Changing Lives, Building Futures

In the spirit of our Founder, The Henry Smith Club is a crucial philanthropic group that underpins our work in the local community and supports Reigate Grammar School to provide first-class educational opportunities to children from disadvantaged backgrounds, so that they can achieve and realise their potential.
