A B Charitable Trust

The A B Charitable Trust (ABCT) was set up in 1990 by Yves and Anne Bonavero. Its purpose was to support unpopular causes that championed human dignity and to focus on small and medium-sized charities working close to the ground. See our values.

There are eight Trustees who meet quarterly.

The Trust has no endowment. It is funded annually by the Bonavero family.

The Trustees reviewed the Trust’s grant-giving strategy in October 2018.

The A B Charitable Trust has given nearly £19 million since it was founded. You can find details of its grants in the latest annual report.
