Scott Trust Charitable Fund
The Scott Trust Charitable Fund was created in 2005. Its purpose is to foster, promote and support one of the key objectives of the Scott Trust, namely 'promoting the causes of freedom of the press and liberal journalism both in Britain and elsewhere'.
The Charitable Fund has an annual budget of £100,000 to support projects associated with independent journalism, journalist ethics, media literacy and journalist training, both in the UK and abroad.
In its first year, the fund supported initiatives such as:
the Media Trust, which provides media training and skills for the voluntary sector
the Laurence Stern Fellowship, an annual bursary for a qualified journalist to work on the Washington Post
