What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Làmhan is a Scottish charity dedicated to preserving and teaching traditional textile and dressmaking skills while promoting inclusion, sustainability, and cultural heritage. It provides accessible, high-quality sewing and textile education to individuals of all backgrounds, especially those facing social or economic barriers. Through hands-on workshops, training, apprenticeships, and outreach, we empower people to learn skills such as sewing, tailoring, weaving, and kilt-making. These are taught not only as creative practices but also as tools for well-being, confidence, and employability. Committed to environmental responsibility, the charity integrates reuse, repair, and sustainable materials into all aspects of its work. By engaging communities and young people alike, we ensure that Scotland’s textile traditions are preserved and passed on, while making a positive social and environmental impact.

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.
