We are pleased to publish our Report on Activities for 2022, which reports on our grantmaking for the year.
In 2022, the Foundation gave 93 grants, totalling £3,334,240. This included £837,338 in grants focused on racial equity in our Arts programme and Strengthening Civil Society programmes, as well as £63,983 in top-grants to existing UK grantholders who applied for their funding before the sharp rise in inflation.
An infographic overview of our funding can be found here.
The report includes three interviews with grantholders from each of our three programmes to provide a deeper insight into the work our funding supports:
- For the International Development programme, with Rosie Brighouse, senior lawyer at the Human Dignity Trust. Human Dignity Trust received a grant to work on implementing a key decision by the UN’s CEDAW Committee which found criminalisation of LBQT women to be against the CEDAW Convention.
- For our Arts programme, with Kiz Manley, who established Hip Hop HEALS to develop the use of hip hop for helping heal trauma.
- For our Strengthening Civil Society programme, with Stafford Scott, the founder of Tottenham Rights, which received a grant to develop legal action around the Metropolitan Police’s Gang Matrix.
