Public benefit

The trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

As a charity we are asked by the Charity Commission to consider whether our activities provide" a public benefit."

It believes our services do provide a public benefit and therefore justify our charitable status. We have complied with the duty in section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission and in planning future activities.
