Operations:
What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Our efforts continue to gain traction and increase outreach and impact. We continue to learn. Based on articulated needs and interests, we trialled new activity elements and approaches proposed and led by people in their later years. Our approach advances and supports older people, fostering relationships, increasing social connections and community building, with their mental, physical, and spiritual health and wellbeing a priority. Our second full year of operation has achieved a basket of well used activities which continued 6 established and popular groups, one (digital inclusion) being run across 5 locations during the year. We introduced 2 new groups, all bringing increased numbers of participants, volunteers and critically an ownership of the ideas and principles of self-motivated ageing in communities of interest and in neighbourhoods. Two other craft activities are being morphed into a participant led group in Year 3.

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.
