Following our strategic review, held in the first half of 2018, Futures for Women Trustees decided to cease the awarding of interest-free loans and seek to work with a partner organisation to support disadvantaged women into the workplace.  A request for expressions of interest from charities who wanted to work with us in this regard was advertised and several charities responded.  The Trustees are now reviewing the expressions of interest received and will be undertaking a short-listing and due diligence exercise over the next few months.  It is expected that we will announce our new charity partner in March 2019.
