jacharitabletrust.comAbout John Andrews Charitable Trust
The John Andrews Charitable Trust is a Welsh funder established to support work within Wales, with a particular focus on the geographic areas surrounding Cardiff, Swansea and the Lleyn Peninsula. The Trust's stated priorities are to help further the pursuit of art, maintain historical artifacts of our industrial past, and most importantly fund charities and projects that have a real impact in helping better the lives of those unable to do so themselves. The Trust funds across three broad strands: the arts, the preservation of industrial heritage, and social welfare. Their approach favours grassroots, locally rooted organisations with a clear sense of purpose and a genuine connection to the areas they serve. What makes the Trust distinctive is its combination of cultural and social objectives, and its strong sense of place.
