His legacy should reflect his personality and help other young people to make the most of their talents and to inspire others whose life opportunities may not be what we would all want. The charity will raise funds to support a series of programmes/awards that will provide an opportunity for young people with ability and drive who are both good citizens and role models to undergo coaching/training, to then use the skills learnt to motivate and inspire other young people. This may involve travel to enhance the experience of the selected candidates. Funding will also be provided to support mentors to help the candidates selected to become ambassadors for the Archie Lloyd Foundation. Areas of particular interest to Archie were all sports, outward bounds, politics, music, finance and academia. These areas will be of particular focus, (although not exclusive) for the Charitable Foundation’s Trustees in the selection of suitable recipients of any award. The Charitable Foundation will support direct programmes as funding allows, whilst also working with established charities that can support and further the charitable objectives.
