The Robertson Trust has launched a call for project proposals to inform policy and public debate related to the financial well-being of people living on low-to-middle incomes in the run-up to the Scottish Parliamentary Elections of 2026.
We are delighted to announce our latest funding recipients through our recent Nurturing Relationships Open Call, with 39 organisations awarded £3,230,000 to support their work to prevent and reduce poverty and trauma across Scotland.
Our Chief Executive, Jim McCormick, provides an update on our Equity, Diversity, Participation and Rights (EDPR) work and shares what’s on the horizon, including a new £1M Advancing Racial Justice Fund co-designed with lived experience leaders and The Robertson Trust.
We’re pleased to share what we’ve learned from our Plus Fund pilot – part of our Funder Plus offer – which focuses on helping organisations build their capacity and strengthen resilience.
In our Voices series, we spotlight the stories and insights of the incredible organisations we support - those driving real change in the fight against poverty and trauma in Scotland. The latest group is Touch of Love, a community-driven charity dedicated to supporting minority ethnic communities and New Scots in Aberdeen. Key activities include a food bank, youth club, and cultural integration activities and sessions.
Our latest report as part of the Funder Commitment on Climate Change is now available.
