What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Aberdeen Muslims is dedicated to supporting people in need within Aberdeen City through our monthly FoodBox project. Each month, we distribute over 100 food boxes to individuals and families facing hardship. Alongside food distribution, we provide information and resources for those seeking additional support. Until recently, our charity operated without a bank account, and we relied on the generosity of food business owners across Aberdeen, as well as using our own funds whenever possible. Over the past year, we have actively engaged with restaurant and takeaway owners to secure food donations and build sustainable partnerships. We are pleased to have established several key partnerships that will continue to support our FoodBox project. Looking ahead, we aim to expand this initiative by forming new partnerships, securing sponsorships, and increasing outreach efforts to meet the growing demand.

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.
