The J Ferguson Trust is one of many Common Good Funds administered by Fife Council, specifically for 'the aged, sick and poor of Dunshalt and Auchtermuchty'.

This fund now provides all our village seniors with a Christmas Shopping Voucher redeemable at Dunshalt Community Shop.

Eligibility to receive a voucher has been 60. Over the years the age we would consider someone to be elderly has changed! Moving forward the eligibility criteria hasbeen updated to state pension age. This will help us manage the funds available for the benefit of our seniors and ensure this can continue for years to come.

New for 2024 - Those on the beneficiary list up to and including Christmas 2023 will remain eligible. If you live in the village or have just moved to the village and have reached state pension age you will be eligible to receive your Christmas Voucher.
