|
The Odysseus Trust seeks to promote good governance in the interests of the governed, based upon plural democratic values, public accountability and the effective protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms. It seeks legislative, political and social reforms to achieve these objectives. The Trust supports the activities of Lord Lester of Herne Hill QC in his work as a member of the House of Lords. Anthony Lester is a human rights advocate who has campaigned for a Bill of Rights and for equality legislation in the United Kingdom for some 30 years. The Odysseus Trust has four staff members: two Parliamentary Legal Officers (Bonita Meyersfeld and Tara Lyle), a researcher (Caroline Baker) and an office manager (Evie Jamieson), who co-ordinate and direct the work of the Trust. The Trust is a company limited by guarantee. It operates as a non-profit-making body financed solely by voluntary donations.
