What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Springburn Unity Network SC052977 is a dynamic, community-led organisation at the heart of Springburn, Glasgow. Our mission is simple yet powerful to bring people of all backgrounds together in the spirit of unity, inclusion, and active participation. Since our creation, we have delivered a wide range of initiatives that empower marginalised groups, foster community spirit, and address inequalities affecting local residents. Many individuals from minority ethnic and the local communities face daily barriers such as financial hardship and language difficulties. These challenges limit access to education, employment, and wider community engagement, leaving many with low self-confidence and feelings of exclusion. This often leads to isolation, reduced wellbeing, and limited opportunities to integrate. At SUN, we are committed to breaking down these barriers by creating safe, inclusive, and welcoming opportunities for people to connect, learn, and grow together.

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.
