The Robert Anderson Research Charitable Trust
The Robert Anderson Research Charitable Trust (RARCT) is a registered UK charity (No. 800617) established to support academic research by providing temporary accommodation and financial assistance to postgraduate students and visiting scholars conducting intensive research in London[1][2].

Activities and mission
The trust operates with the stated purpose of enabling academic researchers to focus on short-term projects in London by offering subsidised accommodation and grants[4]. Its activities centre on fostering scholarly collaboration and resource access, particularly for individuals requiring dedicated time in London-based archives, libraries, or academic institutions[1][2].

Operational details
As of its 2023 financial reporting, the trust recorded an annual income of £111,619 and expenditures of £95,839[2]. Governance consists of three unpaid trustees, with no employees receiving remuneration above £60,000[2]. The organisation supplements its academic support with cultural initiatives, including an annual summer concert series organised by resident scholars[3].

Historical context
While specific founding dates remain unspecified in public records, the trust gained recognition in academic circles by 2016 through its focused support for short-term research residencies[4]. Its operational model distinguishes it from scholarship programs bearing similar names, such as the unrelated Robert Anderson Memorial Scholarship Fund in Iowa, USA, which focuses on environmental studies[5].

Governance
Three trustees oversee operations without financial compensation, adhering to UK charity regulations[2]. The trust maintains no trading subsidiaries or commercial fundraising operations, relying on donations and investments to fulfil its mission[2].
