Roshni Legacy Fund
The Roshni Legacy Fund provides small grants of up to £50 for an individual or £100 for a family. The Fund has been set up to support women with ‘no recourse to public funds’ who are subject to domestic abuse in the context of marriage, relationships, employment and trafficking. Urgent personal and emergency items where there is no public funds or benefits or grants to cover the items can be applied for.
The fund will receive applications from Support Workers of known agencies to support women and children in extreme hardship and in urgent need of a small grant. Agencies will be vetted and notified as to what amount is available for spend each year.
All applications must be completed by an approved Support Worker, currently from Juno Women’s Aid.
Grants will only be awarded where there is no other benefits or public funds available for the following items:
- Food
- Clothing
- Bedding
- Travel
- Other
