Operations:
What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Working with theatre professionals, Trojan Women creates and runs psycho-social support and awareness raising drama projects with refugees and asylum seekers in the United Kingdom and abroad, culminating in public performances of plays written and acted by the beneficiaries featuring their own dramatized stories. The purpose is to help alleviate psycho-social distress through meaningful group activity and giving the beneficiaries a platform to tell their stories directly to the general public. Awareness raising is amplified by filming stage performances, documentary films about the process, and a podcast of interviews with beneficiaries Why Am I In Your Country?. Some follow up pastoral work is carried out for beneficiaries. Projects are set up with the cooperation and sponsorship of local authorities, refugee and asylum seeker groups, local theatres. Funding for projects is raised through philanthropic individuals, foundations, and institutions, NGOs, and the National Lottery.

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.
