In the early 1980s a benefactor came forward with the proposal to assist the Trust with the purchase of property.  Several were investigated before a property was purchased. This opened as a Christian residential home for the elderly in 1988. Following many changes in legislation and operation, the home was sold in 2008.

Application was made to the Charity Commission in 2010 to change the objects of the Trust to allow grants to be made. This was approved in November 2010 and the new objects formally approved by the Board of Trustees in January 2011.

Application forms for grants are linked below:
