The Rank Foundation is a grant giving charitable trust, restricted to causes within the UK approved by the Charity Commission. It concentrates exclusively on:
   • Encouraging and developing leadership amongst young people
   • Supporting disadvantaged young people and those frail or lonely through old age or disability.
   • The promotion of Christian principles through film and other media.

It is with profound regret that we report the death of Fred Packard, Chairman of The Rank Foundation. Fred died suddenly, but peacefully, on 1 March: he had celebrated his sixtieth birthday in January. We send our deepest sympathies to his wife, Dulce, and their two daughters. See 'History' for more details.
