It is an educational charity, concerned primarily with the promotion of historical and classical studies in Oxford University.

Until recently the Trust allocated the bulk of its funds to the support of tutorial teaching in the three Oxford colleges with which he was associated, Christ Church where he was an undergraduate and don, Merton where he was a Research Fellow, and Oriel to which the Regius Chair was and is attached.

Since 2012 the Trust has been financing a Postgraduate Scholarship at Oxford in association with Somerville College. From 2014, in association with New College, it will be funding another Postgraduate Scholarship.

The Trust also pays for graduate or undergraduate prizes at Christ Church, Merton and Oriel colleges, and arranges annual Dacre Lectures in Oxford.
