and donations, as providing a Fund, the net income of which be used to provide grants for
osteopathic education purposes and research.

Structureg governance and management
Govei'ning ducuTnent
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an
unincorporated charity.
The charity is organised so the Trustee and its rnembers meet regularly to manage its affairs. The
day-to-day administration is managed by the Osteopathic Foundation's Grants and Projects
Manager, as well as other executive staff from the Institute of Osteopathy.
The Trustee regularly identifies and reviews the risk to which the charity is exposed and ensures
appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The
principal risks faced by the charity lie in the performance of invcstm¢nts and operational risks from
the inappropriate advancement of making grants. The risk variability in investment returns is
mitigated by the retention of expert investment managers as custodians and advisors of a
diversified portfolio of investments.
