Corporate Partnerships are vital to the work we do. As a charity that relies solely on voluntary donations, we’re deeply grateful for the generosity of partners who have supported us over the years. 

We are proud to partner with corporates who share our vision and believe in our mission to ensure that every child in London has a healthy, safe, and happy childhood. 

Our amazing corporate partners support us through COTY, strategic partnerships, commercial partnerships, employee fundraising, and event & comms collaboration. Their commitment to our work helps us make a lasting impact for London’s children.

Our Partners

DRAG

When you see a child's face when you’ve gone through a whole day of doing everything, realising the difference you've made, you get a sense of fulfilment and contentment that’s a lot better than you get from any sales deal, it’s far beyond that. It gives you a bug to go back and do more. If we all had our way, we’d be doing one a month.

Bionic

The majority of our team are from East London, so it was important to us that we could support a charity that was helping people in the communities where many of us were born. The Childhood Trust ticks all these boxes and from the get-go we have built a really great relationship with them.

Partnership Story

Bank of England

In November 2023, staff at the Bank of England chose The Childhood Trust as one of three charities to support over a two-year partnership. Since the inception of the partnership, colleagues across the Bank of England have engaged in the partnership and will help to provide vital support for 700,000 children living in poverty in London. Their colleagues have taken part in numerous adventure playground renovations around London, and supported fantastic fundraising events including quiz and games show nights, various fundraising challenges as well as sport related fundraising with a football penalty shoot-out and darts tournament. Colleagues have also taken part in the Lord Mayor’s Show and showed their support of The Childhood Trust as one of 10 charities to benefit from charity auctions and a public ballot in summer 2024 of low serial number banknotes, following issuance of the new King Charles III banknotes. 

Partnership Story

Bionic

Bionic Services have been TCT partners since 2020, and they have truly championed our cause throughout the partnership.  Aside from organising fantastic fundraising challenge events, including a team skydive, they have continuously supported our Transforming Spaces programme. In 2024 alone, they completed 3-bedroom redecorations with enthusiasm, dedication, and respect for the families and communities we are supporting. 

Partnership Story

Cain International

In January 2025, we launched our multi-year partnership with Cain International (‘Cain’), the alternative asset manager specialising in real estate investment solutions. Cain has chosen The Childhood Trust as it's new UK charity partner, reflecting their mission of creating tangible, meaningful change throughout the cities it operates in.

This funding will help us deliver essential services to children living in poverty, enabling them to access opportunities that promote educational success, social mobility, and emotional well-being. As part of this partnership, Cain employees will also dedicate their time to volunteering. Each member of the team will participate in one volunteer day per year, with activities ranging from decorating children’s bedrooms to constructing adventure play areas.

Jonathan Goldstein, Chief Executive at Cain International, said: “At Cain, we believe in supporting the communities we are a part of, and we are proud to name The Childhood Trust as our UK flagship charity partner. The Trust is doing vital work to support children facing real challenges, and by working together, we can provide them with the opportunities and support they need to build a brighter future.”
