SASC Trust

Who we are

SASC Trust is an independent charity and grant-making foundation (registered in England and Wales under number 1176848). Funded by returns generated by investments made by Social and Sustainable Capital, SASC Trust partners social sector organisations, to identify and scale lasting solutions to homelessness.

Our culture and values

SASC Trust’s vision is that those experiencing and working to tackle homelessness have sucient resources to make positive change – delivering solutions with and for those facing immediate need, whilst also using their expertise and insight to help identify and prevent the underlying causes of homelessness.

SASC Trust has an independent Board of Trustees who are responsible for the governance of the charity, and who oversee its activities and partnerships.

The charity’s grant-making practices are rooted in its values:

- We believe in better

- We listen to learn

- We move at pace

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

SASC Trust is currently developing its grant-making guidelines and approach, ahead of the launch of its first funding round in early 2026.

Ahead of this first round of grant-making, the Board are seeking to recruit additional Trustees to strengthen the organisation’s capacity and capability.

To complement the current skills and experience of the existing Board, the Trust is specifically seeking to recruit individuals who bring knowledge and experience of housing and homelessness. It welcomes applications from those with both lived and / or professional experience.

SASC Trust is also specifically seeking to diversify the perspectives and backgrounds of the Board. With this in mind they will particularly welcome applications from those who are under 30 or over 60, those whose ethnic heritage is not white British, those who identify as having a disability and applicants from the LGBTQIA+ community.
