The Glendalough Trust

Public benefits

The Glendalough Trust (hereinafter referred to as "GT") makes grants of money to organisations working worldwide in furtherance of its purposes. For example, GT has supported Belfast Storehouse, and Ballysillan Youth for Christ, both working in the greater Belfast area, Salvation Army working thoughout the UK, Scripture Union in the Republic of

Ireland, Fields of Life and Dwelling Places working in Uganda and Tear Fund, Barnabas Fund and Mission Aviation Fellowship working worldwide alongside various individuals engaged in the advancement of the Christian Faith throughout the UK. The benefit flowing from these purposes are: 1. The improvement of spiritual and emotional welfare of people across the world. 2. The relief of poverty and improvement of living standards of people across the world. 3. The provision of education to people worldwide who may not otherwise be able to access education providing enhanced knowledge and education for these people and consequently in their communities. 4. The improvement of physical welfare and health of people across the world. These benefits are demonstrated through feedback and reports given by the organisations and individuals to whom grants are made. The trustees seek details of activities and projects being carried out by those organisations and individuals to ensure that funds will be used effectively and to the benefit of the public. The purposes outlined do not lead to any harm. The safeguard put in place by the trustees (namely to seek details of activities and projects being carried on by organisations and individuals who it is proposed a grant be made to) seeks to mitigate against any possibility of harm arising. The beneficiaries of the purpose are worldwide. For example GT supports projects in Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, GB and Uganda.
