Supporting Worthy Causes
The Castle Craig Foundation is a project which is being established to provide a structure and focus for our organisational desire to give as well as a means for engaging with the voluntary sector, it also provides an opportunity to share and apply expertise to tackle challenging social issues. This charity will exist to further charitable purposes for the public benefit and not the purposes of the company. The Castle Craig Foundation is not a registered charity.
