Livery Companies
The Sheriffs’ & Recorder’s Fund is very proud of its longstanding links with the City of London livery companies, with over 70 of the livery companies and/or their charities making annual contributions of up to £10,000. All livery company donations are used directly to make grants to prison leavers and they currently provide funds for around 60% of such grants.
