The Geographical Association
Location: Sheffield
Loan Amount: £170,000
Date: September 2010
The Geographical Association promotes the study of geography in schools and colleges, producing teaching materials and raising the profile of the subject. It was renting its offices near Sheffield University, but the association felt that owning them would allow it to extend its reach. We lent them £170,000 to buy the freehold.
