Over the years the Trust has made grants to a wide variety of charities, many of which have been assisted annually over a long period. There are no specific criteria, but consideration is given, among other things, to: People who are disadvantaged (in the widest sense), Personal development through adventure, The environment, Whether the charity will be able to bring life-changing benefits to its clients, Whether a small grant of, say, GBP £500 will really make a difference to the charity, How challenging the raising of the money for the particular cause will be, The number of people assisted per GBP £ spent, The viability of the charity and where the rest of the money will come from, How much the charity spends on fund-raising and administration, Whether the charity works locally, nationally or internationally
