According to data from Trust for London, 33% of households in London with a disabled person in the family are in poverty. For our first meeting, Joanna Wootten from Trust for London and James Lee from City Bridge Trust will be informing us on the progress of the Disability Justice Fund. The Disability Justice fund is a partnership fund between Trust for London and City Bridge of £3 million with aims to fund Deaf and Disabled people’s organisations to help strengthen their voice for a fairer society.
Please join us – either in-person or via Zoom - at our first meeting as we discuss how our sector can centre disabled people and disability rights in grant making.
Please note, this event is open exclusively to London Funders members. If you have any questions about our networks or would like to become a member, please email our Membership Manager Nasyah on nasyah.bandoh@londonfunders.org.uk.
