THE BURDEN TRUST 

The trust objectives are broad and its resources limited. Applicants should either on-line using the charity's web-site. If the trustees wish to follow up an application the secretary will request additional information. The trust does not give grants to individuals. The trustees meet annually in June to approve grant requests received by the preceding 31st March.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
