Operations:
What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Friends of Braidburn School (FoBS) Charity is a small charity run by parents, volunteers and staff. It fulfils its purpose by organising fundraising events (school based events), making grant application requests (to wooden spoon etc), by receiving contributions from sponsored events and by receiving donations from parents and members of the public. FoBs is going through a membership transition. Many of its multi year members are leaving the charity as their children leave Braidburn school and move into the next sage of their lives. FoBS is operating on a low activity basis until the membership is revived. We are working with the Headteacher to achieve this. This will ensure that FoBs continues to provide additional benefits to the learners of the school as we move into the future.

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.
