Bucks's charitable foundations team up to tackle local poverty

The Anson Charitable Trust, Heart of Bucks Community Foundation and Rothschild Foundation have partnered to tackle local poverty through the Buckinghamshire Capacity Fund. 

The fund will award a single grant of at least £110,000 to a not-for-profit organisation that can contribute significantly to Buckinghamshire’s response to the rising costs of living for vulnerable, disadvantaged and insecure-income households.

Henry Allmand, CEO at Heart of Bucks said:

“As local grant-makers, we want to think global, and act local. We want to make a difference by working together, to tackle a challenging and deeply concerning area of focus within Buckinghamshire. Through the creation of this collective fund, we want to provide the local non-profit sector with additional resources to deliver a larger local safety net than would otherwise exist.”
