JRCT is committed to the creation of a world that guarantees equal treatment for all people. Funding priorities are: Protection and promotion of equality and human rights and their enforcement in the UK, and promoting rights and justice for minorities who face the most severe forms of racism. The next deadline is Wednesday 2nd September (Account registration must be completed by 19th August).
The Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust believe that human rights play a vital role in protecting the most vulnerable and in turn benefit the whole of society.
The Trust is interested in supporting long-term work to achieve changes, both incremental reform to effect policy and legislative change, and more transformational approaches to change the public debate. The Trust articulate their policy in three strands but recognise and are interested in funding the overlapping nature of each of these.
What JRCT will fund
Who can apply
If your organisation is a registered, excepted or exempt charity based within any of the four jurisdictions of the UK and all of your work fits within their published programmes, they encourage you to consider applying for unrestricted or core support, although you may apply for programme or project funding if you prefer.
For all other organisations or individual applicants, you may apply for a specific project or defined programme of work that would provide public benefit and further our aims as set out in the published policies.
