The Hamish Ogston Foundation was established in October of 2019. Philanthropy has long been an important part of Hamish’s life; from 2008 to the registration of the Foundation, Hamish donated over £8.5 million to numerous causes.
The Foundation’s underlying principles are key to the approval of its donations and the outcomes that are expected from them. Although small donations with little or no oversight can be impactful, the Foundation opts for a different approach.
This strategy welcomes initiatives that promise long-term sustainability, maximal financial impact and measurable social outcomes. Drawing on the commercial acumen and subject expertise of the team, successful applicants can expect a minimum investment of £1.5m and close cooperation with the Foundation over a number of years.
