Overview

The Charity now includes the Bertram Fund as a restricted fund for Roman Catholic purposes and the benefit of Roman Catholic charities.

It is their policy to give preference to charities

  • operating under Roman Catholic auspices
  • serving Poole, Bournemouth and the County of Dorset and
  • working at a national level for the benefit of the elderly.

In considering applications for grants the Trustees give preference to charities whose fund raising and administrative expenses are proportionally low.

They have made grants to Northern Ireland charities but these are not considered a priority for the Trust.
