What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
We provide information, advice and support to unpaid carers in Helensburgh & Lomond. We have a contract from Argyll & Bute Integration Joint Board for the delivery of services to carers in line with the Carers (Scotland) Act 2016. We support young and adult carers by making as assessment of their needs and personal outcomes, using an adult carers support plan or young carers statement, and if these meet the threshold of the Argyll & Bute Eligibility Criteria, we will pass the assessment to Social Work Staff who will consider providing a support package. The majority of carers do not meet that criteria, but we will offer them a range of preventative services, including information about their rights and entitlements, counselling, holistic therapies, legal advice, advocacy, addressing financial problems, and fuel poverty, participation in specific support groups, a wide range of activities and events for both adult and young carers to give them a break from their caring roles.

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.
