How You Can Give

There are many ways you can give to support us in our mission. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in contact.

Monthly giving provides consistent, long-term support for children who need it most.

Payroll Giving

Payroll Giving is a tax-efficient way to donate. Your gift is taken before tax, meaning more support goes directly to children.

Ask your HR or Payroll team if they have a scheme, or visit the government’s Payroll Giving page.

Give in Memory

Honour the life of a loved one through a donation in their name.

Leave a gift in your will

Leaving a gift in your will plants the seeds of hope for future generations. No matter the size – every legacy helps us provide transformative support for children facing trauma, anxiety or emotional distress.

We use gifts in wills for our most impactful work, ensuring your legacy lives on in children, families and communities.

  • The charity consortium Remember a Charity provides helpful resources about wills and leaving charitable gifts.
  • If you already have a will, your solicitor will need:
    – Charity Name: UP – Unlocking Potential
    – Address: Canopi, 82 Tanner Street, London, SE1 3GN
    – Charity Number: 1163932
  • Decide whether to leave a share of your estate, a fixed sum or a specific asset, and your solicitor will update your will.
  • Leaving 10% or more of your estate to charity reduces the Inheritance Tax rate from 40% to 36%.
  • A gift of even 1% of your will could transform a child’s life chances.

If you are considering leaving a gift or would like more information, we would love to hear from you.
