Charity which supported Grenfell victims âinstitutionally racistâ, review finds
A charity which has supported Grenfell victims has been and remains institutionally racist, a review has found.
The Westway Trust has a “legacy of institutional racism” and has failed to “understand, identify and address racial disparity” over the years, a report by the Tutu Foundation concluded.
The trust was set up almost 50 years ago to manage the 23 acres of land under the Westway – an overhead motorway – in west London with the aim of working to benefit the local community.
The organisation commissioned the review in July 2018, acknowledging that “serious” allegations of institutional racism had been made over several decades.
