WLFB Changes Charitable Status to SCIO

3rd April 2018

West Lothian Foodbank is undergoing a major change to our charitable status. We are separating our financial affairs from Whitburn Pentecostal Church and becoming a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO) in our own right.
There will be no change to our services as a result of this change but behind the scenes we will be electing a new Board of Trustees and separating all our bank accounts etc.
This means that regular givers will be required to change the destination accounts for their donations. When this comes into effect we will let you know and the website will be updated.
Whitburn Pentecostal Church will continue to have oversight of the new SCIO and some members of the church will form part of the new board however the board will be enlarged to allow it benefit from the experience of new external volunteers.
