London, N.W.1.

April 2nd 1957.

Dear Alan,

I am sending your letter on to Frank Thistleton who is secretary of the R.V.W. Trust. I fear that we have momentarily exhausted our money: but I should like us to be able to help if we can.¹

1. Frank had asked if the RVW Trust might be able to help the ‘RMS’ [Rural Music Schools] which had recently lost its Arts Council grant. Thistleton confirmed by telephone (according to a file note) that there was nothing to spare in the RVW Trust but it might be possible to provide help from the Editha Knocker Fund.
