We select, fund, and strengthen voluntary organisations working in London, providing much-needed investment for practical interventions that are proven to improve children’s lives. Our network consists of 135 carefully selected charities delivering impactful services to an estimated 390,000 vulnerable children.
Transforming Spaces is The Childhood Trust’s housing support programme that redecorates disadvantaged children’s bedrooms, as well as local youth clubs and community centres which children rely on for support. The purpose of the programme is to provide children living in unsuitable accommodation with safe environments where they can sleep, learn, play, and grow.
Our research mission is simple: to listen, learn, share and make changes for the better together. It’s core to our approach as an informed grant-maker and charity delivering our own community outreach work. It helps us to hear, understand and amplify the voices of children living in poverty in London.
The London Child Poverty Summit is a one-day event that provides opportunities for leaders in London’s third sector to collaborate and communicate key issues impacting children in poverty.
