The Role of the Trustees
The Trustees are all volunteers who are appointed in accordance with UK charity law and are legally responsible for ensuring that the SRP BF is carrying out the purposes for which it is set up.
This means this involves them:
- understanding the SRP BF’s purposes as set out in its governing document
- planning what the fund will do, and what they want it to achieve
- complying with the SRP BF governing document (its Constitution) and the law
In addition, the Trustees are the people who manage the funds, so they are responsible for:
- enabling potential beneficiaries to apply for financial support when they are in need
- scrutinising applications
- deciding if applicants qualify for support from the fund, and
- making payments from the fund to qualifying applicants
