Building a future where rewarding work is accessible for all.

Shaw Trust is a leading employment charity. Each year we support hundreds of thousands of people to achieve their full potential.

We help people find and keep meaningful jobs. We provide education and training for those starting out and those looking to progress in their jobs. We champion community health and wellbeing to improve all aspects of life and help people into work. We support businesses to become better workplaces. And as the largest not-for-profit residential children’s home provider, we’re improving outcomes for looked after children.

Through strategic partnerships and innovation, we make sure our services put people’s needs first. We’re proud to say that everything we do creates real and lasting social value in the communities we support across the UK.
