We continually strive to ensure the best use of our charitable resources. We organise social and fundraising events and activities throughout the year, to help raise awareness of the good work of our Charity and to engage with our beneficiaries and supporters. Our Charity is managed by a small, professional, Staff team and a Board of Volunteer Trustees. We report annually to OSCR, (Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator).
