The school has a special link with the Catherine Bullen Foundation, set up by Linda and Roger Bullen in memory of their daughter Catherine who was a former student at the school. Catherine tragically died of severe gastro-enteritis in Namibia, having been in Africa to gain medical experience for her elective placement in her fifth year of medical school at Bristol University. Her parents have set up the Foundation which funds community based projects including the provision of fresh water supplies, medical and educational facilities in the Omaheke region of north East Namibia. Students and staff regularly contribute to the Foundation raising money through a range of activities such as a Bio-Bake Off as part of National Science Week. Mr & Mrs Bullen present an annual achievement award to a Year 13 student who is progressing from CCHSG to study Medicine.
