Our Strategy
The Childhood Trust is London’s child poverty charity. With a record number of the capital’s children living in poverty, our vision is to break the cycle of poverty so that every child experiences the healthy, happy and safe childhood which prepares them well for life.
Our 2023 – 2026 strategy, Prepared for Life, has been developed in consultation with our board of trustees, executive team and key stakeholders, creating a framework which puts focus on the most vital services provided to children living in poverty in London.
The Childhood Trust will focus its work on four priority areas: Physical Health, Mental Wellbeing, Home & Community Environment and Learning & Work Readiness.
Our ambition is to partner with charities who can demonstrate that their work within our four priority areas contributes to transforming the lives of disadvantaged children in London.
