Winter Charitable Appeal
We have long supported Nova New Opportunities, a small, diverse charity with a big reach and novel approach to social change. This year our support for families and individuals in need is more important than ever.

Nova is led by Director Lizzie Cho, known to many of you in the community as a Meyler Campbell Alumna and the first recipient of our John Stopford Scholarship. This year, we are asking our community to join us in our Winter Charitable Appeal to help support Nova's work by donating to the organisation directly and/or taking part in their current raffle. The families supported by Nova, very many of whom were victims of the Grenfell fire, are on the front-line of the current cost of living crisis.

We know how generous this community is and so we urge you to please support Nova's important work

This short video was created following the Grenfell tragegy in June 2017 as an appeal to the community for help and support to those affected.

Bisi Alimi Foundation

As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first gay pride in the UK, can you help make history repeat itself?


As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first gay pride in the UK, can you help make history repeat itself? In Nigeria, pride happens only in the mind of LGBTQI people who only dare to dream, but we want to change that, and we need your help. Being LGBTQI in Nigeria is a crime. While many LGBTQI people have been so bold in living their lives expressively, they have had to pay for it dearly. At the Bisi Alimi Foundation, their passion is to accelerate the social acceptance of LGBTQI people because they believe some history is worth repeating.

Will you help in making proactive impact in the lives of LGBTQI Nigerians by donating to the Bisi Alimi Foundation, here.

You can also watch Bisi Alimi speak with Tom Daley, in a recent BBC documentary to highlight not just the criminalisation of same Sex love within the Commonwealth, but the brutalisation of individuals on the basis of who they love. Watch here.
