What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
The Mary Davies Trust provides a wide range of therapies to island residents referred by their GP or other medical professional. Therapies include Acupuncture, Aromatherapy, Massage, Reflexology, Reiki, Osteopathy and Psychotherapy. Suitably qualified Arran therapists are funded to provide a series of treatments to those identified by the island’s medical professionals as in need of feel-good therapy. Free appointments are prioritised by the Trust according to need and consistent with its resources. Top priority is given to those caring for loved ones as it is felt that, due to their selfless devotion to their dependants, they often overlook their own needs.The charity pays for up to four sessions per client, with up to ten further monthly sessions subsidised at 50% if required.

No charity trustee information available
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?

The Scottish Charity Register contains key information about a charity’s operations and finances. This includes:

    (Accounts submitted prior to 9 March 2026 will be redacted, or may not be published, depending on the charity’s income level or legal form.)

These changes are designed to improve transparency across the charity sector in Scotland.
