| The origin of the charity derives from the wish of Sir Cyril Kleinwort and his descendants, who constitute the members of the company, to devote some of their time and resources to charitable activities. The company’s objectives are to promote and support, as the directors shall in their discretion decide, such charitable purposes and such charitable organisations as are exclusively charitable according to the law of England. It is, therefore, exclusively a grant-making charity, with no direct operating activity of its own.
The directors of the company are its trustees for the purposes of charity law.
CHK Charities Limited normally makes grants totalling up to £2 million per annum for a wide range of purposes across the UK, funded from investments.
