The Cumber Family Charitable Trust was incorporated in the year 1985 by a Berkshire farming family and the current Trustees are all still family members.
The main aim of these interests continues to be emphasized on farming and the countryside and they support agricultural and conservation work both locally and in the Third World.
Projects local to Oxfordshire and Berkshire, meeting local needs, whether administered by local or national charities are of interest. Educational needs especially those involving disadvantaged children and medical appeals especially cancer research and the hospice movement are another area of interest.
Moreover, the Trustees prefer to support charities working all over the UK. In a global context, Third World development as small-scale agricultural projects is of particular interest. They prefer to fund longer term projects that do not necessarily appeal to the general public. The Trustees have also supported local conservation and archaeological projects. The Trustees only occasionally assist individuals with local connections who are personally known to one of the Trustees.
