We’re delighted to be making these grants. We think they represent the best of Global Britain, as an active global citizen that stands up for human rights, ethics and integrity.
Now we are on the brink of Brexit, there’s a chance to go further. We hope that Britain will become a stronger champion for international co-operation to tackle poverty and injustice around the world. And that we will become a hostile environment for dirty money.
In all the uncertainty of these times, the next chapter in our national story is being written. We’re proud to support those who are working for the best of Britain.
