History
The charity was created by the director in May 1992 in memory of Yves Francois Guihannec, principally as a means of channelling his own charitable giving. It is a company limited by guarantee incorporated under the laws of England Wales. The object of the charity under its Memorandum of Association is the promotion of any charitable purpose or object and it is established for charitable purposes only. The income and property of the charity is to be applied solely towards the promotion of its objects and no portion thereof may be paid or transferred directly or indirectly, by way of dividend, bonus, or otherwise howsoever by way of profit to the Members of the charity.
Objectives and Activities
The charity does not conduct independent charitable activities of its own. It receives donations (largely or exclusively from its director) and then makes grants to other charities.
The charity has no premises or staff of its own. It is provided free of charge with premises and office facilities by its director. It pays no fee or remuneration to its director or any third party (other than the examiner).
Given that the charity has no staff, it does not encourage solicitations for grants from other charities.
