In 1985 the society was bequeathed a trust fund from the estate of Mrs. M J Guthrie in the name of her husband, Douglas J Guthrie, who was himself an ENT surgeon in Scotland. Through their generosity, funding is available to support educational projects. Applications are considered by the society council at their meetings held twice a year.

Applications for Guthrie funding are now being accepted for consideration at the Summer meeting which is being held at the Doubletree by Hilton Dunblane Hydro on Thursday 11th & Friday 12th May 2023. The deadline for applications is Friday 31st March 2023.
