Charitable Activities

Guidelines for Funding

The following is a guideline to the Salters' Company policy on charitable giving.

1. The Salters' Company Charitable Trust makes donations to a wide spread charitable sector.

2. Consideration to funding smaller charities where their contribution would make a real difference is given a higher priority. Donations to large major charities are not normally considered.

3. As far as possible charities selected should be Nationwide in their application except for those connected with the City of London where special consideration will be given providing the charity falls within the other criteria.

4. Members of the Livery and Freedom are encoraged to take an interest in those charities which are supported.

5. As a matter of general policy, the Company will give consideration to a small charity where a member of the Livery or Freedom is personally involved.

6. The Company's flagship charity is the Salters' Institute which promotes science education and further funding to similar organisations to the Salters' Charities is unlikely.
