Bestway Foundation donates £250,000 to British Asian Trust

The Bestway Foundation, the charitable arm of Bestway Group, has donated £250,000 to the British Asian Trust, raised at its Ascot race day

The donation was formally presented by The Lord Choudrey CBE SI Pk, chairman of Bestway Group, alongside members of the Bestway Board including Group Chief Executive The Honourable Haider Choudrey and Dawood Pervez Managing Director, Bestway Wholesale Limited.

The funds were raised at Bestway’s 32nd annual Ascot Charity Race Day. Since launching in 1994, the Race Day has raised millions of pounds for more than 30 charities, supported by over 800 of Bestway’s business partners, suppliers and colleagues each year.

Founded by His Majesty King Charles III in 2007, the British Asian Trust is a diaspora-led international development organisation. It focuses on creating large-scale, sustainable change across South Asia in areas such as education and livelihoods.

Lord Zameer Choudrey said: “Charity has always been central to Bestway’s family and business values. Through the Bestway Foundation, we support causes that deliver real, measurable impact.

The British Asian Trust’s innovative approach to tackling complex challenges across South Asia makes them an inspiring partner, and we are proud to support their work.”

Asif Rangoonwala CBE, Vice Chairman of The British Asian Trust, said: “We are deeply grateful to Sir Anwar Pervez, OBE H Pk, The Lord Choudrey CBE SI Pk and the Trustees of the Bestway Foundation for their generous donation. Their continued commitment to supporting communities across South Asia will enable us to expand our work and transform even more lives”.
