Grant maker’s director to retire after 38 years

The Tudor Trust’s director Christopher Graves is to retire after 38 years with the grant maker.

Chair of the Trust Matt Dunwell said that Graves “has kept a relatively low profile in the sector but has quietly influenced the way foundations relate to their grantees”.



Graves, who is to step down at the end of April, said: “What we have achieved at Tudor over the years has been remarkable and owes much to dedicated trustees and staff putting the needs of applicants first. I really believe Tudor has an exciting future ahead of it with new people developing new avenues for Tudor to explore.”
