spend out
Giving our all: reflections of a spend out charity
Established by its founders as a 'spend out' grant-maker, The Tubney Charitable Trust has a limited life and is spending all its income and capital to achieve its objectives. The Trust will close its doors on 31 March, 2012 having awarded nearly £65 million in grants over its 15 year life span.
Giving our all recounts the evolution of The Tubney Charitable Trust and the various challenges it faced over time. Against this background it explores issues of interest to all grant-makers: strategic planning, governance, campaigning, risk management, project management, partnerships and financial management. In addition, it should be of particular interest to grant-makers like Tubney who have committed to, or are contemplating, spending out.

marine environment
Responding to the Threats to UK Marine Biodiversity
The Tubney Charitable Trust and the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation jointly commissioned a review of current and impending threats to the marine environment in UK waters to inform their grant making in this area. IMM Ltd were selected to undertake this work and reported to the funders in January 2009. The Trustees of the two organisations considered the findings of the report and how their funding should be directed to most effectively meet their grant-making objectives.

The Socio-economic Impacts of Fisheries Management and Policy Designed to Achieve Biodiversity Conservation
The Trust commissioned this report as part of a review as to how it
might best support more effective use of socio-economic data by NGOs
working to achieve biodiversity gains in UK seas. The report is
a basic review of current knowledge of the socio-economic impacts of
fisheries management and policy designed to achieve biodiversity conservation.
The report covers the mechanisms of fisheries management and policy,
the importance and diversity of socio-economic knowledge and how it can
help to place fisheries into the broader, more holistic, framework of
sustainable development.
This work lead to a further, internal report, which the Trustees
used to inform their grant-making in this area.
