The John Terry Foundation is committed to advancing equality, diversity, and inclusion through our work as a grant-giving charity.
We believe that opportunity should not be limited by background, identity, or circumstance. Our mission—to be there, wherever we’re needed most.
As a funder, we are committed to:
- Making funding decisions that are fair, transparent, and inclusive
- Supporting organisations that reflect and respond to the diverse communities they serve
- Actively seeking to reach groups that are underrepresented or face structural barriers to funding
We expect our partners and grantees to share our commitment to equality and inclusion. While we recognise that organisations may be at different stages in this journey, we encourage thoughtful, practical steps toward more equitable practices.
Internally, we are committed to fostering an inclusive culture among our trustees, staff, and volunteers—where everyone is respected, valued, and empowered to contribute.
This commitment informs how we operate, who we work with, and the impact we seek to achieve. As a learning organisation, we will continue to review and improve our approach to ensure that our funding promotes fairness and access for all.
