About us

The Savitri Waney Charitable Trust was founded in 2001 by Mr Arjun Waney, a philanthropist and businessman of Indian origin, in honour of his late mother Mrs Savitri Waney. Arjun and his family decided to consolidate their resources and form this Trust through which they could support and monitor their charitable activities.

Together we have grown over the years, today donating over £500,000 per annum to the charitable sector. This has all been made possible thanks to the continued support network of generous and devoted friends who share our values and passion for the work that we do.

The Savitri Trust was registered in the UK with the charity commission in August 2001, and is also registered as the Savitri Waney Charitable Foundation in April 2003 in India.

The Savitri Trust meets twice yearly and is governed by 12 Trustees
