Queensberry House Trust
Details
The Trust funds originate from the winding up the Queensbury House Hospital in Edinburgh which closed in 1996. The Trust's objects are widely drawn but the trustees generally give where the need is shown and the donation would make a significant difference to the charity concerned, have regard to the locality that the hospital was located and take account of historic links.
They prioritise:
- Newly established groups seeking to tackle the needs of older people where existing resources are scarce or not available.
- Organisations making new or innovative attempts to support older people with fresh approaches to service provision and contributing to wider social inclusion of vulnerable or excluded groups.
- Smaller local charities (but will consider larger charities that meet criteria).
