The Kinloss
Abbey Trust was created in 2003 as the natural development of the
Kinloss Abbey Working Group put together in the summer of 2002 by
The Moray Council. The group was instigated by the Findhorn &
Kinloss Community Council to look at ways of raising the public
awareness to the existence of the Abbey and to look at the general
condition of the Abbey ruins and consider ways to preserve the
monument for posterity. |

To promote for the public benefit the preservation and conservation of Kinloss Abbey and the increase of public interest in and knowledge of its aesthetic and historic importance. 2.
