R Clement Wilson, the chairman of the company, established the Clement Wilson Foundation in 1965 with funds provided by the Clement Wilson Trust. The aims and objectives of the Barcapel Foundation today are very closely linked with the original charitable ambitions of the Clement Wilson Foundation.
What Barcapel Supports
Our three priority areas of interest for funding are health, heritage and youth.
- HEALTH - all areas of medicine and healing are supported by the foundation, with a particular interest in complementary and alternative therapies.
- HERITAGE - we are committed to preserving and protecting our artistic and cultural heritage, especially with reference to the built environment.
- YOUTH - the foundation supports all areas of development for young people especially those from socially disadvantaged backgrounds.
