Charity Partners, Affiliations and One-off Support

The range of charities and good causes supported by the WCI Charitable Trust is extensive and diverse.

Some benefit from long term support (these are known as our ‘Charity Partners’) while others receive one-off grants for specific projects or activities.

The charities supported range from those helping vulnerable young people without family support who are seeking education, training and employment, organisations working with homeless and many community initiatives, often modest in scope but for whom WCI support has a major impact.

It also includes our highly valued service affiliations, both those with established units and those offering young people an opportunity to experience the military life. The WCI is also proud to support those who work with our injured service men and women.

In many cases a WCI member offers to lead the relationship with a charity, championing them within the WCI, representing the Company at charity events and offering support and advice when required. Members can find out more about this at Get Involved (link)
