Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

policy on grantmaking;

policy programme related investment;

Funds are distributed only after vetting applications or in response to appeals which come within the Trust’s objectives and are approved in accordance with the Trust Deed.
The Club does not hold long-term investments which could be subject to loss of capital, and all short-term investments (which have not attracted any significant interest in recent years) have now been cashed in and consolidated into a single bank account.
All members of the Rotary Club are volunteers, and the charity could not function without their tremendous individual and collective efforts.
