Deadline: 29-Jan-23
The A B Charitable trust is seeking applications for its Grant Programme.
Priorities
The focus is on supporting the most marginalised and excluded groups in the UK, who are often from communities experiencing poverty and racial inequality.
People who migrate, are refugees or seeking asylum, and people involved in the justice system, are often the subject of negative public narrative – and being unpopular causes, can be difficult to fundraise for. In supporting access to justice, the Trust recognises that high-quality legal advice and representation is a powerful tool to help bring about both individual redress and systemic change.
The Trust currently funds organisations working in three priority areas.
- Migrants and Refugees.
- A country in which people who migrate, are refugees or seeking asylum are made welcome, treated lawfully and fairly, and enabled to maximise their potential.
- The Justice System and Penal Reform.
- A just and fair justice system, with a significantly reduced prison population, which considers individual needs and potential and places a focus on prevention and rehabilitation.
- Human Rights, Particularly Access to Justice.
- Ensuring everyone in the UK, regardless of income or geographical location, has access to high quality legal advice, so that they can realise their rights.
Funding Information
- Open programme grants are usually between £10,000 to £20,000 and awarded annually.
