What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
This charity was established to replace Link Befriending Project East Fife (SC027493). An application to wind up Link Befriending Project East Fife (SC027493) has yet to be submitted to OSCR. No assets have been transferred during this financial year, as such no accounts have been prepared for the SCIO for this period.

Since the end of the 2024/2025 financial year, the charity now has a bank account and a formal application to wind up Link Befriending Project East Fife (SC027493) and transfer its assets will be submitted to OSCR early in 2026.

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.
