Public benefits
The direct benefit which flows from this purpose includes alleviation of poverty and improving conditions of education, health and well being and family life of children, teenagers and adults nationally and internationally and, through some projects, increased skills and knowledge, vocational opportunity and employment opportunity which in turn
promotes personal development, education and experiences. Benefits are evidenced through feedback from recipients providing briefings/presentations outlining experiences and outcomes for the trustees, feedback from partnering charities, educational institutions and detention centres which may form part of the projects, feedback from beneficiaries within Northern Ireland, Ireland, GB and international communities. This purpose does not give any harm. A private benefit to the trustees may arise from ongoing programmes of training and good governance and finance management. Through these programmes, trustees may gain skills and experience which are transferrable to other settings. These skills are incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to the right beneficiaries.
