THE SIR JAMES RECKITT CHARITY 

The principal object of the Charity is that its income be applied to such charitable purposes as the trustees think fit but excluding any purposes they consider to be of a warlike character. Some priority is given to Quaker causes wherever they may be and a high priority is also given to causes aimed at bringing benefit to the people of Hull and East Yorkshire.
