From 16 to 26 October 2025, I visited Thimphu and Bumthang, Bhutan, as part of a cross-party delegation of MSPs. The purpose of the visit was to engage with entrepreneurial, charitable and cultural organisations and senior politicians and advisors within the Bhutanese Parliament. The costs of the visit, comprised of £2612.20 for travel and £2359.56 for other expenses, including hotel accommodation, meals, visas, Bhutanese tourist tax, guides and transportation, and hosting meetings with the Loden Foundation, were paid by The Tam O’Shanter Trust, Registered Charity Number: SC030043 (of Little Milton, Nr Kingussie, Inverness-shire, East Lothian), which is a family charitable trust with an all-encompassing (rather than specific) charitable objective.
