What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
The House of Hope exists to improve the quality of life for anyone in Scotland affected by breast cancer — whether that is someone who has received a diagnosis, is going through treatment, or is living with the after-effects of the disease. We also support the families and loved ones of those affected. We do this by operating Scotland's first dedicated breast cancer support and wellbeing centre, based in Edinburgh. Away from clinical settings, we provide funded access to a wide range of wellbeing services including fitness classes, holistic therapies such as oncology massage and aromatherapy, nutrition advice, peer support groups, and community drop-in sessions. We also offer specialist support for specific groups, such as those living with secondary breast cancer and younger women. Where someone cannot meet the cost of our services, we use our Hope Fund to ensure financial barriers do not prevent access.

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.
