Philanthropy

Could you join Spurgeons family of philanthropists and help transform the life of children and families in the UK. At Spurgeons, we work with organisations and like-minded people who share our ambition to help children grow up safe, supported and able to thrive. 

Philanthropy can create meaningful, lasting change for children and families. 

 

For more than 150 years, we have supported children, young people and families facing some of life’s toughest challenges. Today, we provide practical, emotional and early support to families in communities where it is needed most. 

 

Whether you are considering a significant personal gift or looking for a trusted charity partner, we would welcome the opportunity to talk.

Your support can change lives 

 

Children and families can face challenges that affect their wellbeing, relationships and future opportunities. 

 

Our work helps families access the right support at the right time -from early help and family support to counselling and Family Hubs. 

 

Your support could help us: 

  • provide early support before challenges escalate 

  • improve emotional wellbeing for children and young people 

  • strengthen families and support parents and carers 

  • reach families in communities where support is most needed 

  • develop longer-term solutions that help children thrive 

 

We believe effective philanthropy is about more than funding a service. It is about understanding a need, investing where your support can have the greatest impact and building relationships that create lasting change. 

Why partner with Spurgeons? 

Every philanthropist, trust and foundation has different priorities. 

You may want to support a particular community, address an issue affecting children and families, provide flexible funding or develop a long-term partnership. 

We can work with you to understand your objectives and identify opportunities that align with your priorities and our charitable work. 

For trusts and foundations, this could include grants from trusts and foundations, project funding or multi-year grant funding where there is a strong strategic fit. 

We can also explore unrestricted funding for charity work, giving Spurgeons the flexibility to respond to changing needs and direct resources where they can have the greatest impact. 

Experience

For more than 150 years, we have worked with children and families. Our services continue to evolve in response to the challenges families face today, while our purpose remains the same: helping children build better futures. 

Impact

We listen to the children, young people and families we support, use evidence and learning to improve our services, and monitor the difference our work makes. 

Your support helps turn investment into meaningful outcomes. 

Partnership

We work alongside local authorities, communities, churches and other organisations to reach families and deliver effective support. 

We believe lasting change happens when organisations bring their expertise and resources together. 

Accountability

We understand that significant charitable giving requires confidence. 

Our charity governance, leadership, finances, annual reports and accounts provide transparency about how Spurgeons is governed and how we use our resources. 

For trusts and foundations carrying out due diligence, we provide the information you need to understand our organisation, our work and our approach to impact.
