Welcome to The Attlee Foundation
Established in 1967 with cross-party support, the Attlee Foundation was founded to benefit people disadvantaged by poverty or lack of opportunity. In keeping with Clement Attlee’s vision of a fairer and more equal society, the Foundation commemorates his life and achievements through projects that reflect his enduring values.
Over its 58-year history, the Foundation has evolved significantly. Ten years ago, it was part of the Attlee Youth and Community Centre (AYCC); a multi-purpose centre serving the community in Tower Hamlets built by the Attlee Foundation. Today, the Foundation operates independently while maintaining strong links with the AYCC.
Its focus remains on supporting young people and promoting the values and social ideals of Clement Attlee through lectures, bursaries, and events that bring together people from across the social and political spectrum.
“With support from all our donors, we have supported disadvantaged children to stay in education and help them with their future prospects. Help us to continue making a difference for the next generation.”
