There are many worthwhile national and regional charities in the UK, all helping
their own specific and worthwhile causes.
However, if you are a small Whitnash organisation or an individual trying to
take part in a sporting event, perhaps a regional champsionship or even an
Olympics, need a new musical instrument for your band, a uniform for your group,
you would like to go to University, or you have just fallen on hard times and
need some help; then getting money from a large charity is likely to prove
difficult.
The Whitnash Charitable Trust is here only for people who live in Whitnash, and
so you aren't up against thousands of other applicants.
Since we are a very new charity and our budget is small, we don't yet have large
some of money to give away. But as the years pass we hope to build up a pot of
money we can distribute to more and more Whitnash people and groups.
The Whitnash Charitable Trust is run by a dedicated group of volunteers. Neither
the volunteers or directors are paid for their work and therefore our outgoings
are kept as small as is possible.
