Data Protection

Previous applications for grants to individuals, whether made using the online application form or by post, required the submission of personal information about the individual on whose behalf the application was made.  The Trust may also hold sensitive personal data about that person. This may include information about the individual’s racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, physical or mental health or criminal record.  The Trust needed this information in order to enable the Trust to make a decision on whether to award a grant.

The Trust also holds personal information about:

  • the applicant support worker
  • beneficiaries of the Trust’s grants to other charities, such as bursary holders funded by the Trust
  • individuals at charity applicants
  • its trustees and employees.

When the Trust receives personal information from an organisation on behalf of an individual the Trust needs to ensure that any personal data and sensitive personal data is disclosed to the Trust with the full knowledge and express consent of the individual.

The Data Protection Act 2018 (“DPA”) requires the Trust to protect personal data and to use it only for specified purposes.  The Trust is registered as a data controller for the purposes of the DPA.

The Trust makes every effort to keep personal data and sensitive personal data secure and to comply with the legal rules about how the Trust processes or uses this information. The Trust has assessed the risk of unauthorised disclosure of personal data and sensitive personal data and believes that it has established appropriate physical and electronic procedures to ensure the security of the personal data and sensitive personal data that the Trust holds.

The Trust processes or uses the personal data and sensitive personal data it holds for the following purposes:

  • assessing the application for a grant;
  • awarding or declining a grant;
  • maintaining records of the application and any grant;
  • confirming that the information supplied is accurate;
  • in rare cases, transferring details to a third party which will be providing services to the individual, for example, delivering goods purchased with money granted by the Trust;
  • as a case study or example on the Trust’s website or in its newsletter for Trust members. The Trust will only use an individual’s name and photograph with the express consent of the individual, otherwise names will be changed.

The Trust will not disclose sensitive personal data to anyone else without the individual’s express consent.

Personal data and sensitive personal data may be retained by the Trust whether or not a grant is made. The Trust intends to hold such data for a limited period, usually up to six years, although some applications may be retained for a longer period for the purposes of archive records.

If the Trust holds and uses personal information about an individual, the Trust will, upon request, tell an individual what information it holds, why it holds such information and, if asked, will provide a copy of such information. Requests to see an individual’s own personal information should be submitted in writing to the address below.
