The aim of the trust is to provide much needed financial support to young people in Scotland whose lives have been impacted by cancer who participate in sport. This can mean those who perform in their chosen sport to a very high level and others for whom sport is part of their life but more of an enthusiastic pastime. The trust will provide direct financial grants to support young people (roughly 2-3 grants a year) we can make donations to fellow charitable institutions whose objectives align with ours. We also aim to undertake certain fund-raising drives to ensure we have the money to meet our goals.
Objectives: The Trustees shall hold the Trust Fund and the income of it to pay and apply the same to or for the benefit of or in furtherance of such charitable purposes or charitable institutions in such proportions and manner as the Trustees shall think fit.
