Foundation

The Swinfen Broun Charitable Trust was established by Trust Deed dated 6 November 1973 and registered with the Charity Commissioners on 28 January 1974 and later incorporated under Section 50 of the Charities Act 1993.

The assets of the Trust derive from the estate of the late Colonel Swinfen Broun, who died in 1948.

The Trust does not actively fundraise and seeks to continue the philanthropic work desired by the donor through the careful stewardship of its existing resources.
