Reason For Removal
Object:
The organisation's purposes are: the prevention or relief of poverty (a) The above will be achieved by: promoting Humanism and donating a proportion of our profits to help support our annual nominated Scottish charity. We raise funds for our Funeral Fund. This fund is set up to assist those people living in Scotland, who struggle to meet the cost of a funeral. The initial payments are to provide a Humanist Celebrant free of charge, but as the Fund grows, we will be able to provide additional monies to cover the cost of some or all of the funeral. We work directly with the Funeral Directors to establish the costs are proportionate and the fund is means tested to ensure sustainability. By raising monies for our Funeral Fund, we aim to provide financial help for those most in need in society living in Scotland, who have been impacted by the increasing effect of funeral poverty. As we continue to raise funds, raise awareness of this social issue, liaise with Funeral Directors and local authorities, we hope to ultimately have an impact on reversing the tide of funeral poverty in Scotland.

Charity accounts and constitution – what information do we publish?

From April 2016 we began to publish charities’ accounts, initially for those charities with an annual income of £25,000 or more, and for all SCIOs.

When a charity publishes its accounts on its website and has supplied us with a link, we have made this available. From late 2017, where the charity is a company, a registered social landlord or is also registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, a link is provided to the relevant regulator’s website where the accounts are made available. We accept no responsibility for the functionality, accuracy, or content of external websites – if you experience a technical issue with an external link, you should contact the charity directly.

You have the right to the following information under section 23 (1)(a) and (b) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, from the charity direct:

  • a copy of the charity’s latest statement of accounts
  • a copy of the charity’s constitution.

In addition to the above, a charity may also be able to provide you with previous years’ accounts and constitutions, although it is not obliged to do so. You can contact the charity to request this information using the contact details on the charity’s Register entry.
