Donations from foundations and individuals make our work possible. We also fund our work by selling publications, organising events and undertaking research. We only accept support and commissioned work that does not compromise our independence.
The organisation was established in 1998 with support from the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust and the Farm and Food Society.
We are very grateful to the following current funders: the Esmee Fairbairn Foundation, the Polden Puckham Charitable Trust, the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust, the JMG Foundation, the AW60 Charitable Trust and the Naturesave Trust.
