INVESTMENT POWERS
There are no restrictions on the way in which the Charity can operate, the Trustees having wide powers of investment.
QUARTET COMMUNITY FOUNDATION
A legacy from a former member, Claude Champion was donated to the Quartet Community Foundation and is held as a nominated fund within their assets with part of the overall income of the Foundation being allocated annually to the named fund. By making grant applications to the Foundation, the Charity may spend the income allocated to the fund in ways to help the local community of Weston-super-Mare.
In 2013 funds from the Rotary club were also donated to the Quartet Community Foundation on a similar basis as the legacy above. In a way similar to that above the Charity may make grant applications to spend the income in any way that meets its objectives.
