ABOUT THE TRUST
SafeDeposits Scotland Charitable Trust is a grant-giving charity aimed at promoting education, training and best practice in Scotland's private rented sector.
The Trust believes that those actively involved in the sector will have innovative and creative ideas to ensure it is the best that it can be for years to come.
The SafeDeposits Scotland Charitable Trust invites landlords, letting agents and tenants to suggest possible projects to be supported depending on available funds.
SafeDeposits Scotland, a not-for-profit organisation which safeguards over 150,000 deposits of private rented tenants under Scottish law, funds the Trust and grants awarded by the trust.
Since its creation in 2012, SafeDeposits Scotland has become Scotland's leading tenancy deposits scheme, and protects approximately 69% of the country's deposits. The scheme generates financial surpluses over and above the costs of running its business, and these surpluses are handed over to the Trust to be reinvested in Scotland's private rented sector.
