A seed for growth and change
The Church Commissioners for England published a report into their historic links to African chattel enslavement. In penitence and hope, the Church Commissioners proposed the Fund for Healing, Repair and Justice to address a legacy of racialised inequality that scars the lives of billions to this day.
This website is currently being updated as work continues on the development of the Fund and its structure, governance and delivery arrangements.
Further updates and information will be shared here in due course.

We believe that, like the mustard seed of the parable, the fund will grow from small beginnings towards an expansive future, inspiring imitation and constructive atonement for enduring evils.
Bishop Rosemarie Mallett, Chair of The Oversight Group
