The Foundation is currently under development, and its programmes, governance arrangements and operational structures may develop over time. This policy may therefore be updated as the organisation and its activities evolve.

Cookies & Website Use
This website may use cookies or similar technologies to support essential website functionality, understand website usage and improve the visitor experience.
Cookies are small files stored on your device by websites. Depending on the technologies used by this website, you may be able to control or restrict cookies through your browser settings.

Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction.

When information is no longer required, reasonable steps will be taken to delete or securely dispose of it where appropriate.
Children's Privacy
The Foundation's future work may involve supporting children and young people. However, this website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information directly from children without appropriate safeguards or consent where required.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the website inappropriately, please contact us so that the matter can be considered.
