Public benefits
The direct benefit which flows from this purpose includes increased protection and preservation of the local community, promotion of family life with the provision of safe accommodation of a reasonable standard of living leading to less anti-social behaviour and possible hardship for future generations, providing accommodation and support services
for the most vulnerable members of the local community e.g. elderly, young mothers with dependants, those experiencing long term disability, reduced levels of stress and anxiety for those experiencing poverty whether by reason of youth, age, ill health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage, Benefits are evidenced through feedback from tenants and independent evaluation by a number of regulatory bodies including Department for Social Development (DSD) and The Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority (RQIA). This purpose does not give rise to any harm. The beneficiaries of this purpose are people living in Northern Ireland who are experiencing poverty because of youth, age, ill health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage and their dependants. A private benefit to trustees may arise from our programme of ongoing training in good governance, finance etc. through this training trustees gain skills and experience which are transferable to other settings. These skills are incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to the beneficiaries.
