McIndoe’s Guinea Pigs
Trustees
The Trustees are volunteers and other than pre-approved expenses no payments are made to them. The Trust has no staffing, office or administrative overheads other than standard banking and investment commission charges. We receive annual income from the initial funds provided by the Guinea Pig Club at our launch date in January 2000, now managed on our behalf by Cazenove Capital. This is a closed fund, and we cannot spend the fund's capital. The annual income and other monies raised by the Trust during a financial year are used to fund research projects into burns and reconstructive surgery.
