Southall Trust
The W F Southall Trust (also known as the Southall Trust) is a Quaker-based family-run grant-making charitable trust, established in 1937 by Wilfred Francis Southall.

The Trust is a charity itself and generates its income from an endowment, which is invested and managed according to a defined set of ethical criteria. The interest and dividends that arise from this endowment is awarded to charities. The Trust awards around £300,000 in grants per year.
The Trust is founded upon the Quaker principles of love and respect for one’s neighbour, recognising that there is something of God in everyone. As such, it is committed to creating a more just, peaceful and collaborative society.

Interpeace
Interpeace is an international organization that prevents violence and builds lasting peace. We have 25 years of experience working in Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Europe and Latin America.
Violent conflict tears apart societies and colors all relationships. Interpeace builds trust as the glue that bring societies back together.
Many solutions to conflict do not last because they are imposed or do not take fully into account the views and needs of those who are most affected. Interpeace works to have solutions designed and led locally from the grassroot communities to the most senior decision-making levels.
In the heat of conflict, it can be difficult for people to see what connects them to others, rather than what drives them apart. Our approach seeks to help different parts of society come together to identify and harness their common strengths for sustainable peace.
Everyone’s contribution to peace matters, especially the International Community together. Interpeace therefore also supports others by offering fresh thinking and expert advice about peacebuilding.
