Welcome to the McWhirter Foundation website

We are an apolitical charitable foundation, formed to promote, recognise and reward acts of outstanding courage and good citizenship and to generate thought and debate amongst sixth formers on a particular issue of moral, legal or social significance which explores the importance of good citizenship and individual freedom within the rule of law.

Originally called The Ross McWhirter Foundation, it was established in 1975 by friends and colleagues to honour Ross and to give continuing life to his ideals and work following his assassination by Irish Republican gunmen at his home in north London earlier that year.

Please use the links above to discover more about the foundation or feel free to contact our Director, Major General Peter Chambers CB MBE for further information.
