What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Starter Packs Glasgow started in March 2000 as a charity that was designed to support people moving on from homelessness and into a new tenancy. A pack of essential household items would be delivered when the recipient was given the new keys to their new home. The packs were designed to help people settle in quickly, alleviate the financial burden of having to buy all these items at one time along with the stress that goes with it and help break the cycle of homelessness. In the last financial year we directly supported 1600 Households across our city (2400 people, 600 of whom were children). This year has seen the number of pack referrals rising again and demand on our service continues to grow.

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.

Charity accounts and constitution – what information do we publish?
