OUR OBJECTIVES
The Redhouse Youth Trust charitable objectives are to support the advancement of education and training in the following order of priority:
- Beneficiaries in need of care and protection;
- Providers of care and protection for beneficiaries; and
- Beneficiaries.
The trustees may assist beneficiaries by:
- Providing or paying for goods, services or facilities for them; or
- Making grants of money to other persons or bodies which provide goods, services or facilities to beneficiaries.
The current Trustees are representative of a wide range of experience within the field of work with young people in the County and who are committed to supporting this work through the Trust.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF OUR TRUST
The Redhouse School Trust and Norfolk Youth Projects had very similar aims; the differences were that the Redhouse School Trust had invested the resources realised from the sale of the Redhouse School (the history of which can be found here) and used the income to execute their aims through the awarding of grants to young people and youth groups, whereas Norfolk Youth Projects, created as a Charity in 1981 under the name Norfolk Children’s Projects, owned two properties in North Norfolk which were available for use by youth groups at a greatly subsidised rate and in this way supported the beneficiaries identified in their Trust deed through the promotion of education and training in the field of intermediate treatment of children and young people in the County of Norfolk who are delinquent or exposed to moral danger.
Both sets of Trustees worked with HM Charity Commission over a period of 4 years to form the Redhouse Youth Trust in 2002 for the support and benefit of their beneficiaries as outlined in the Scheme below.
