The Cattanach Charitable Trust is closing its funding programme and its website from Friday 25 November 2011, until 1 June 2012.  This means that organisations will not be able to apply for funding until1 June 2012. 

From 1 June 2012 the Trust will have new criteria.  These will be publicised on this website and in the voluntary sector press.  The focus is likely to be on ealry years - up to age 3.  Grants already committed for the next three years will be maintained.  Applications will be online only, after the re-opening.  Please phone or email the Assessor, Alison Campbell, if you wish to discuss.

The Cattanach Charitable Trust is a Scottish Charitable Trust established in 1992 by Miss Phyllis Cattanach, with very general charitable purposes. It is registered in the Scottish Charity Register, maintained by the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator, with charity number SC020902.

Although the Trust Deed by which the Trust was established gives the Trustees extremely wide scope for charitable giving, in recent years the Trustees have focused their charitable giving through the adoption of a themed approach. This ensures that the Trust income is applied in meaningful amounts to charities operating within the Trustees' current theme, and avoids dissipating the Trust income through a large number of small donations across a wider field of charitable endeavour.  The Trust makes grants to charities who apply for work with children exclusively in Scotland.
