Operations:
What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
We are part of the Trussell umbrella network, providing help and support to those referred to us by local welfare agencies who recognise their clients' need for food and financial support. We provide them with food and, with their permission, refer them to Citizens Advice (who are available on site) to review their benefits. As we are in a position to review their benefits there and then, we find that many people do not need to return to us, as they can often afford to purchase the food their family needs. We also provide support to the local primary schools - (in an area of severe economic and social deprivation) as requested by the head teachers.

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:

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