Rowntree trusts

The four Rowntree Trusts are funded from the legacies of the Quaker chocolate entrepreneurs and social reformers Joseph Rowntree and
Benjamin Seebohm Rowntree. The trusts are based in the Rowntrees' home city of
York, England. The trusts are:

* the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust, a Quaker philanthropic trust;
* the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, which funds social policy research and development;
* the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust, which forms part of the Foundation, and which owns and manages the model village of New Earswick, and a number of other housing schemes in the York area;
* the Joseph Rowntree Reform Trust, which is a political body promoting democratic reform and social justice within the UK.
