I do wonder if those organisations funding these ideological and clearly political so-called charities have read their relevant rules or articles to check if they’re allowed to give to such causes. For instance, why is the Lloyds Bank Foundation and NHS Bradford Districts CCG making sizeable donations?
I used to work for Lloyds over a decade ago and saw first hand the drift into the ideological charity world after the “merger” with TSB and its foundations rather than “sticking to its knitting”. It’s certainly got worse and had to pay a former employee £1m a few years ago for sacking him over his understandable response to DEI training.
A very good question, why are all of these tax payer funded organisations giving away our money instead of using it to supply the public services they exist to provide?
Sadly, such organisations have been captured over the years by those activists with other plans that don’t fit the organisations original purpose. Either their trustees or boards are complicit, or “asleep at the wheel”!

Lloyds Bank Foundation is coming up a lot when I research asylum/ migration charity funding
