Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all they have.

About Us
The Abel Charitable Trust was established in 1976 as a vehicle for distributing some of the profits that a private construction company received through its activities in housebuilding. It originally had a predisposition towards charities addressing housing needs but, over time, has expanded its horizons to favour projects supporting offenders, young people, those with addiction problems and sex industry workers including victims of trafficking.
It is our view that to assist the vulnerable, it is important to help people help themselves, encouraging organisations and supporting preventative methods of help such as training, information and education.
