About the Trust
“Catalysing change for a truly sustainable future”
The JJ Charitable Trust was founded in 1992 by Julian Sainsbury.
The Trust works with organisations to tackle deep rooted systems of education, economics and culture (values, beliefs and narratives) to help catalyse a fundamental paradigm shift towards a truly sustainable future. It supports social and community experimentation around regenerative and circular economies, and works with the Aurora Trust and Mark Leonard Trust on the Climate Change Collaboration.
In addition, The Trust seeks to improve the effectiveness of literacy teaching in primary and secondary education for children with learning difficulties, including dyslexia.
Our Annual Reports are available on the Charity Commission website.
We publish open grants data. To find out more about what we fund, please visit 360Giving.
Grantmaking process
For ‘catalysing change’ work, the Trust does not accept applications.
For literacy work, the Trust has a small grants scheme which allows direct applications.
