OUR HISTORY
The Schroder Charity Trust has a proud history of supporting the UK charity sector for over 70 years.
Originally established as ‘The Bruno Schroder Charity Trust’ in 1946, the name was later changed to the ‘Schroder Charity Trust’ in 1953. The Schroder Charity Trust is wholly independent of Schroders Plc, the investment management company that is also associated with the Schroder family.
