The Main Fund of the Sir David Trench Fund for Recreation (“The Main Fund”) was established with a sum of HK$3 million donated anonymously in 1970 to commemorate the governorship of Sir David Trench. The Main Fund is to be used for the provision of facilities and purchase of equipment for projects in the furtherance of the objectives of the Main Fund. In keeping with the donor's wishes, emphasis is placed on encouraging the purposeful use of leisure by young people.
