About the Trust

Dilworth Trust

The Dilworth Trust is a social enterprise*, established to deliver on Dilworth's core purpose - to enhance equitable outcomes for young men as outlined in the Will of Founder James Dilworth.  Dilworth School relies primarily on the endowment gifted by James Dilworth more than 130 years ago to fund the School’s current and future operational and capital needs.

The role of the Dilworth Board and Trust Office Management team is to safeguard and grow the endowment, enabling the School to deliver the Trust’s mission for generations to come.

*A Social Enterprise is a hybrid of a charity and a business, as it has as its main purpose a social, cultural and/or environmental mission (like a charity), but supports this purpose primarily through undertaking commercial activities (like a business)
