Grant and disbursement oversight
A vehicle is judged by whether its money lands where it was aimed. We keep the grant side of the giving in order: decisions made on record, disbursements tracked from the moment they leave the vehicle, and each grant shown in the returns as what it is. The paperwork exists so the giving can be audited.
Grants inside the purposes
A charitable vehicle can only spend on purposes that are wholly charitable, so every grant has to sit inside the objects the constitution declares. We help you draw the line between a grant and something else, and we record the decision at the point it is made, with the trustees as the people who made it. When a recipient is paid, the payment is tagged to the decision that authorised it. That chain, decision to payment, is what makes a disbursement a grant rather than an unexplained outflow.
The trail in the returns
Disbursement oversight ends in the annual return. The money that left the vehicle has to appear there as a gift, and the record has to explain it: which decision authorised it, which purpose it served, which recipient received it. We keep the ledger that answers those questions, so a grant made in one year can be defended in a later audit without anyone rebuilding the history from memory. Oversight is mostly this: a trail that cannot be faked after the fact.
