Basic Needs

"" The funds to start BasicNeeds were contributed by Andrews Charitable Trust (nee World in Need) and the Joel Joffe Charitable Trust. This made it possible for the organisation to develop its overall policy and strategy, for a sister Trust to be registered in India, and for pilot work to be carried out in India and Sri Lanka.
"This solid foundation gave us the ability to enlist the support of major development and health funders, such as the Department for International Development, Comic Relief, the Big Lottery Fund and Northern Rock, and rapidly expand and develop our work."[1]
