Hugh Fraser Foundation

Distributed by: Hugh Fraser Foundation

The Hugh Fraser Foundation was established in 1960 by Sir Hugh Fraser with shares in House of Fraser and other investments. Trust funds stood at £31.2 million in 2001.

Trustees favour smaller, more focused causes rather than large highly publicised appeals, and tend to make grants to charitable bodies to assist with the charitable work. Grants are often made in successive years in order to maintain their momentum and effectiveness
