===Charity===
Fayed set up the Al Fayed Charitable Foundation in 1987 aiming to help children with life-limiting conditions and children living in poverty. The charity works mainly with charities and hospices for disabled and neglected children in the UK, Thailand, and Mongolia.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.the-acf.com/who-we-are.aspx|title=Who we are |website=The AlFayed Charitable Foundation |access-date=11 October 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171011233339/http://www.the-acf.com/who-we-are.aspx|archive-date=11 October 2017 |url-status=dead}}</ref> It works with charities including Francis House Hospice in Manchester, [[Great Ormond Street Hospital]], and [[ChildLine]]. In September 1997, West Heath School in [[Sevenoaks]], Kent, United Kingdom, was placed into receivership. West Heath was the former school of [[Diana, Princess of Wales]]. Al-Fayed bought the school for £2.5 million in May 1998 and it became the new premises for the Beth Marie Centre for Traumatised Children, which had previously been based in Sevenoaks. The school reopened as [[The New School at West Heath]] in September 1998.<ref name="BBCMay98">{{Cite news |date=20 May 1998 |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/97667.stm|title=Al Fayed buys Diana's school|publisher=BBC News}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.thirdsector.co.uk/charitable-side-mohamed-al-fayed/article/620770 |title=The charitable side of ...
