Activities
'It makes grants, donations or gifts to organisations'
'the advancement of education'
The charity is set up to support beneficiaries with free training and education seminars with the aim of improving employment opportunities and to provide grants to members and former members of PFA Scotland towards the cost of attending educational and vocational courses or for the relief of financial hardship of those members. This is achieved by a grant making process, which is very specific and managed by detailed liaison with collaborative partners, assisting the reach directly to beneficiaries. The applicants provide detailed information on the nature, length and costs of training and education courses. Each of these individual applications are considered at trustee meetings, always considered by trustees and either accepted, rejected in full or further information requested. This process is administratively followed, recording all information and quarterly reviews are carried out robustly, with trustee input at each stage. I can add no further text in this box.
