Edward Harvist Trust

Charity that awards grants to organisations in the London boroughs of Camden, Brent, Barnet, Harrow and Westminster, to assist with one-off projects that will benefit residents in the boroughs. We have not been able to find any information as to who Edward Harvist is or was.

2017: Chris Donovan directed us to British History Online where we learn "Edward Harvist, 1610–11, brewer, 'one of His Majesties Gunners'" and more. thanks Chris.
