What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
The Salisbury Centre was set up to provide a place for community and individual development from a value base, rooted in spirituality, psychology and creativity, unaffiliated to any one specific paradigm or practice. The Centre is a hub for a wide range of practitioners, who use the rooms and facilities for their practices and the facilitation of practices. The Centre also strongly engages with different approaches to community building, usually engaging volunteers as well as staff and these vary from year to year, in part depending on what specific kind of grant funding have been received. The Centre has a beautiful garden, library and seed library, all which are mostly run by volunteers and partly supported through external funding, currently related to community, climate and seed sovereignty.

From 09 March 2026, OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees as part of its Scottish Charity Register entry. We are also required to publish each charity’s annual report and accounts as received from this date, which may include the names of certain individuals. The only exceptions to publication are where a charity or one of its charity trustees applies for this information to be excluded, and OSCR is satisfied that publishing it would jeopardise the safety or security of a person or premises.

If the charity trustee information on a Register entry appears blank, this may mean that an exemption applies or that the charity has not yet provided the required details to OSCR. Supplying this information will become mandatory as part of future annual submissions.
Copyright

From 30 June 2025, OSCR began collecting charity trustee information through OSCR Online. Providing this information is a legal requirement for all charities. The names of trustees will be published on the Scottish Charity Register from early 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.
