02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
The Trustees have discretion as to the application of the Trust's free annual income, but the Trust Deed does provide that some preference should be given to charities operating in Scotland whose objects are to make provision for the welfare and teaching of the blind and the deaf and the care and support of the elderly and infirm.
Charitable purposes
- the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage
- any other purpose that may reasonably be regarded as analogous to any of the preceding purposes
Beneficiaries
- Older People
- People with disabilities or health problems
Activities
- It makes grants, donations or gifts to organisations
Constitutional objectives
For payment of the whole or such part of the free income and the whole or such part of the capital of the Trust Estate as the Trustees may from time to time consider desirable for such charitable purposes or to such charitable institutions, societies, foundations or funds as the Trustees may in their sole discretion select. However, I do record my wish, without binding my Trustees, that they should give some preference to charities operating in Scotland whose objects are to make provision for the welfare and teaching of the blind and the deaf and the care and support of the elderly and infirm.
