Northern Ireland’s biggest independent charitable trust, Ulster Garden Villages,
has confirmed that its grant giving will not be reduced despite the economic recession.

 

“At this point in time we do not consider that our annual distribution will be reduced,”
a spokesperson for Ulster Garden Villages (UGV) told the Northern Ireland Ireland
Council for Voluntary Action.

UGV’s statement follows other soundings which indicate that charitable trust giving
in Northern Ireland will not be significantly hit in the recession.

 

NICVA reports that, bar one, trust contributions to the voluntary and community 
sector in Northern Ireland would remain the same, in proportion to contributions
in the rest of the UK.

 

UGV’s grant priorities are health, disadvantaged sections of society, young people,
culture and heritage and environment.
