The Pittecroft Trust

A registered charity
No 294174

   A small charitable trust with a very general charitable remit.
It is exceedingly rare for the Trustees to respond to unsolicited requests for support.  

The trust has assisted over the years in a very modest way in:
            # Providing a Royal Aeronautical Society prize for quiet aircraft design
            # Contributing to the setting up of an unsegregated school in Northern Ireland
            # Converting a GLC Residual Body grant into computers for an environmental charity
            # Supporting improved access in town and countryside
            # Providing computers and computer support for various charities
            # Making various small specific grants to a community Museum
            # Giving small donations to charitable causes as the trustees see fit
