Abbey’s charitable priorities aim to support disadvantaged people through:

 * local regeneration which encourages cross-community partnerships;
 * education and training; and
 * financial advice which helps people to manage their money

Alan Eagle, Manager of Abbey’s Charitable Trust, is looking forward to receiving
applications from a wide range of charitable organisations. “This is a fantastic
opportunity for charities working in Glasgow to receive funding for community regeneration
projects”, he said. “The Trust has already given over £480,000 to projects in Glasgow
since 1999, so we are thrilled to be able to offer increased opportunities through
the Community Programme.”

Charitable Trust at PO Box 911, Milton Keynes MK9 1AD, call the Trust’s

helpline on 0870 608 0104 or visit Abbey’s Web site.
