Ben cares about the impact of his giving today, but also supports causes that will continue to have a positive impact on society and generations long into the future.
Our priority areas
Ben’s philanthropy is broadly structured into four priority areas:
Free enquiry and academic freedom
Supporting individuals, organisations and causes that uphold and promote the values of tolerance, freedom of expression and open debate.
Mathematics education and research
Funding institutions that advance mathematical discovery and helping the best and brightest minds to address the challenges of tomorrow.
Neurodiversity and young people with autism

Building collaboration across the Commonwealth
Championing a modern Commonwealth and its role in spreading opportunity, prosperity and democratic values.
“My ambition is to do the greatest possible good with my resources. That means supporting work and organisations that share my passions and values – championing free expression and the marketplace of ideas, fostering educational excellence, supporting British science particularly mathematical sciences, promoting neurodiversity, and celebrating the shared values and strengthening the collaborative ties of the Commonwealth.”
