The Watt Trust (charity number SC016856) was set up in 1983, in memory of Rob Watt and his wife, Barbara. Rob Watt, a distinguished Fettesian, was Rector of the Edinburgh Academy between 1951 and 1962.

The purpose of the Trust is to give financial help to past and present members of both the Edinburgh Academy and Fettes, to enable them to advance their education or professional training beyond the point at which public funds or university scholarships are available, or when private or family sources alone are not quite adequate for the purpose.

For more information on the Trust, please visit its website here.
