Show your Value for Money to funders

Last year every £1 that you spent on items unlocked £10.50 in value. Collectively, we estimate that we were able to unlock a total £27m across our charitable network.  You’ve told us that with the money you save you can help more people and improve your existing services and activities.

We want to celebrate you!

As part of our 25th anniversary celebrations we have launched our Powered By Kind campaign. Our ambition is to unlock even more key essential products and welcome more organisations so that we can support even more people together.
