There are two Trusts with specific Overseas Development focus areas: 1) Kirby Laing Foundation, whose overall aim is to improve the quality of life and employment opportunities for women and girls and/or people with disabilities, primarily in Nepal and Bangladesh; and 2) Beatrice Laing Trust, which aims to support small-scale overseas development projects, aimed at building the capacity of local partners to provide long-term solutions to problems in the developing world, principally through Christian organisations working in the Anglophone countries of Sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia to improve educational opportunities and build sustainable livelihoods.
