We are delighted to announce the successful applicants to the first round of funding through the Windrush Justice Fund.
The £40,000 fund was created in the wake of the Windrush scandal through the generous donations of the public and the Mayor of London. Funding is available to organisations which help people affected by the Windrush scandal.
There are five successful applicants in this round, who are planning activities ranging from legal-drop in sessions to support people through complex applications to the Windrush scheme, to coffee mornings used to triage and identify those who may need support.
The Windrush Justice Fund has now re-opened, with a new maximum grant of £5,000. The deadline for applications is 31 December 2019.
