What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Our charity is set up to raise awareness of mental health and well being and to donate money to individuals and groups who promote this in our community. In this financial year we raised awareness by organising events in our local theatre : Inspiring Life, brought our community together to enjoy in a series of free workshops promoting good physical and mental health including, dance ,literature, drama, music, sound therapy, and art therapy. We collaborated with local groups and charities e.g. See Me and Borders Recovery Cafe. We fundraised by holding a pub quiz, baked for our Christmas Fair as part of a Depressed Cakes project, and organised a cafe for See Me's Walk A Mile event. We also received many generous donations from local businesses, Easy Fundraising and JustGiving. We sourced grants from Scottish Borders Action Community Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund and were able to support the writing and presentation of a wonderful play about Andy's Mansclub .

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.
