The Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust was set up in 1982, by Mrs Jean Beryl Lilian Sainsbury, and is a registered charity (No. 326358). Since then, the Trust has given over £5m to animal welfare charities.
The Trust has six trustees including two solicitors, one of whom specialises in charity affairs, and two practicing veterinary surgeons. Most have been in office for at least twelve years and share a concern for, and commitment to, animal welfare.
The objectives of the Trust are to donate to UK registered charities whose purposes encompass one or more of the following:
- to benefit or protect animals
- to relieve animals from suffering
- to conserve wild life
- to encourage the understanding of animals
The Trust invites applications for funding, which are then reviewed against specific criteria, as set by the Trustees in accordance with the objectives of the Trust.
If you are considering a substantial donation or legacy to The Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust, we could recognise this in the future with an annual donation made in your name to a specific animal welfare charity of your choice.
The Jean Sainsbury Animal Welfare Trust is not in any way connected to the Sainsbury family or retail group.
