Our Trustees
The Foundation is governed by a board of up to 13 trustees, appointed for the skills and experience needed to oversee its charitable work. Trustees serve for a term of five years and may be re-appointed for subsequent terms. Together, they bring experience across academia, education, outdoor learning and development, business, media and finance, helping ensure the Foundation’s resources are used carefully, effectively and for the greatest possible benefit.
The trustees meet quarterly, in June for the AGM, and again in September, December and March. They are responsible for making the final decision on all grants and bursaries awarded to individuals, schools and community groups.
