The trust operates under a non-discriminatory framework (UN Convention Article 2), providing support regardless of race or religion. • Governance: The Trust is managed by a high-profile board including leaders from apparel & textiles (MAS Holdings), tea (Akbar Brothers), and the banking sector, ensuring a strong governance framework for long-term sustainability.
