The Carnegie United Kingdom Trust is an independent, endowed charitable trust based in Scotland that operates throughout Great Britain and Ireland. Originally established with an endowment from Andrew Carnegie in his birthplace of Dunfermline, it is incorporated by a royal charter and shares purpose-built premises with the Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland, the Carnegie Dunfermline Trust, and the Carnegie Hero Fund Trust.
The Carnegie trust is the think tank that lobbied the Government of the United Kingdom to pass the Online Safety Act, of which it requires UK citizens to verify their age for “adult content” across the internet.
