Iain McGlashan founded The McGlashan Charitable Trust in 1992. For more than 30 years the Trust has supported access to education by providing grants to students, currently exclusively for postgraduate study and charitable organisations within the arts in Scotland. Iain died in 2019 but the work of Trust continues.
The next deadlines for applications are as follows:
- Arts and Cultural Charities – 30 April and 31 October 2025
