Complaints Procedure
In any one year the Trust receives many more applications for funding than it can afford to support. The Trustees go to considerable lengths to ensure that every appeal for funding, that is within our stated funding guidelines, receives a full and fair hearing. Any applicants or beneficiaries who feel that they have a grievance against the Trust should write to the Chair of Trustees (marked Private & Confidential) who will respond following a period of consultation.
