The Scottish Mining Welfare Trust (Scottish Charity SC048369) was established on 9 May 2018. It is currently completing the reorganisation of the Scottish Mining Convalescent Trust, and all assets of that organisation have now been transferred to the Scottish Mining Welfare Trust. Our purpose is to continue and strengthen the long-standing support previously provided by the Scottish Mining Convalescent Trust. We exist to improve the quality of life for: • people who have worked in the Scottish mining industry or its related sectors • their families and dependants • individuals who may need support due to age, youth, illness, disability, financial hardship, or social disadvantage Through our charitable activities, we aim to ensure that those connected to Scotland’s mining communities can access the assistance, facilities, and opportunities they need to enhance their wellbeing and overall conditions of life.
