It is anticipated that original work by Randolph Caldecott will be
transferred to the trustees. Such original work will be designated as
permanent endowment by the trustees and minuted in the Minute Book.
Objects designated as permanent endowment will be clearly identifiable as
such. All other assets of the Trust the trustees are free to dispose of
within the terms of the Trust as they think fit. Objects designated as
permanent endowment will not be disposed of by the trustees save in the event of
the failure or termination of the Trust. Objects designated as permanent
endowment will particularly be made available for exhibition in suitable
circumstances.
We are most grateful to Aaron & Partners, Solicitors, of
Chester, England, who drew up the Trust Deed for us.
