Charitable Status Approved
We’re now a SCIO (Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation). It means that we can now purchase the building if all the reports and surveys are favourable, and our architect gives the go-ahead for our plans. It also broadens the range of funders we can approach for grants to buy the building and start work on it.
Our charity number is SC054786.
