Support us in our campaign

The campaign for The Women's Forever Fund starts here!

We are asking for millions from the government's dormant assets scheme to be directed to the Forever Fund to distribute long-term, core grants to women's organisations.

After the launch of our campaign, many people have supported the idea. We think it is a 'no-brainer': a strong women's sector benefits individual women, their families, their communities, and society at large. An ethical endowment will lessen the burden on statutory funding over time giving the women's sector the financial freedom to plan ahead, scale up their services, and dedicate more time to social justice work.

We need you to write to your MP, asking them to support the release of money from dormant assets to The Women's Forever Fund. Here's how!

Easy way to write to your MP - it only takes a minute!

I am a constituent living in [your postcode], and I’m writing to you about an issue that matters to me a lot.

I am asking you to support The Women's Forever Fund. This is a long-term ethical investment fund intended to provide sustainable funding for women and girls’ organisations.

[In your own words, briefly explain why this matters to you. For example: a local women’s service you value, your experience of inequality, or why long-term funding for women and girls is important.]

Women’s organisations carry out vital preventative and community-based work, yet they remain chronically underfunded. As decisions are made about the future of the Dormant Assets scheme, I would like to see women and girls recognised as a discrete beneficiary through The Women's Forever Fund.

I would be grateful if you could let me know your views on this and raise it with the relevant minister.

Thank you for taking the time to read my message.

Yours sincerely,
[Your name]
[Postcode]
