QPARA is a not for profit organisation. If, at the end of each financial year there are surplus funds, we invite applications for donations from these from local charities, groups and not for profit organisations in line with our aims to support the local community.

The Salusbury World charity subsidises the residential trips that Salusbury Primary School organises each year for those families that cannot afford the cost. It also organises a winter party for refugee children, buying presents for all of those children who would not normally receive gifts at that time of year.

QPARA sets aside a sum of money at the AGM each year and invites charities or similar not-for-profit organisations, that have a clear connection to the area, to apply for one-off donations. These are decided on at the March meeting.
