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].

Welcome to the first visitor of the year to the Trust’s Kensington house, Dr Ahmed Kamal, Director of Documents within the Centre of Documentation of Islamic and Coptic Antiquities of the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities (shown here outside Kensington Palace). Dr Ahmed is spending the month examining the collection of Arabic papyri in the @britishlibrary, in the first instance to gain a better understanding of what is there. A full list of this year’s visiting scholars will be posted to the Trust’s website soon! (fb)
Many congratulations to Anibal Vidal (Trust Special Award 2021-22) on the premiere of his new work in Singapore! We were delighted to be able to help by providing a small grant from the newly established ‘Hawkins Special Fund’. Wonderful also that the piece was conducted by Alvin Arumugam who is a resident at the Trust’s Kensington house. Bravo both of you! 👏👏👏 #Repost @anibal.vidal.a with @use.repost ・・・ Still buzzing after the premiere of Thus Dreamt the Anthems with the incredible @musiciansinitiative orchestra, beautifully conducted by the amazing @alvinarumugam.conductor at Victoria Concert Hall in Singapore 🙌 Huge thanks to each of the musicians for bringing the piece to life with such a brilliant performance—and especially to @alvinarumugam.conductor , whose musical vision elevated everything beyond what was on the page. So grateful as well to the orchestra board committee for all of their assistance, and to the sponsors who made the concert possible with their generous support. Can’t wait to be back in Singapore soon! 📸 @eaglelasticproductions #premiere #composer #orchestra #singapore #classical #concert #symphonic #music (fb)
