The suicide of the west picks up steam

Board of The Tudor Trust charity all face being sacked for being 'white and privileged' amid an anti-racism diversity drive

  • Charity stopping all grants for 20 months while it 're-thinks' its future

  • Staff will learn about 'racial justice' and 'white supremacy culture'

  • Family trustees Matthew Dunwell and brother Benjamin seem likely to go  

The changes are being overseen by interim director Raji Hunjan. The move to 'reimagine' the trust's operation began three years ago and was triggered by the Black Lives Matter protests. 

A statement by the Tudor Trust said: 'We recognise that we live in a society that is shaped by white privilege and racism. We also acknowledge that being a family Trust has given rise to a trustee board that is almost entirely white and privileged. While the profile of the staff of the trust is more diverse, we recognise that, throughout the organisation, most of us do not have experience of what it means to be discriminated against because of our colour.'
