| News | Kate Crowley's Fund | |
| Earlier news | Kate Crowley, our long-standing member and committee member, supported a great number of organisations campaigning for peace and social justice. In her later years, she quietly paid the costs of unemployed youngsters who could not otherwise afford to travel to demonstrations and meetings. Kate was an exceptional activist, who believed dissent and campaigning were an essential part of our democracy; her memorial Fund hopes to continue this support. Kate's Fund is being set up as an unregistered charity, administered by five trustees meeting quarterly to collect and distribute the Fund. Applications would be made by officers of organisations Kate supported, on behalf of individuals, for up to two travel seats, attendance costs at conferences, or, for local groups, some costs such as room hire or leaflets. If you'd like ro contribute or require more information please contact the Society. The details are on the "About Us" page. |
