Three brilliant small charities

Environmental Law Foundation

The Environmental Law Foundation (ELF) gives communities across the UK free access to expert environmental legal support, at a time when pollution, harmful development, and habitat destruction increasingly affect people's health and livelihoods. ELF operates a free helpline backed by an in-house legal team and a network of over 150 pro bono lawyers, delivering up to £1 million in free legal support each year. In 2024, they intervened in a landmark Supreme Court sewage case, creating lasting new pathways for communities to hold water companies to account. This is a compelling opportunity to support a small but high-impact charity punching well above its weight on environmental justice.

People In Need Today

People in Need Today (PINT) is a grassroots London charity tackling homelessness at street level, at a time when rough sleeping in the capital has hit its highest recorded level, with nearly 12,000 people sleeping rough in a single year. PINT is managed by volunteers only and operates seven-day-a-week outreach across London with over 150 volunteers — many of them formerly homeless people the charity once supported. Having distributed over one million meals in 19 years and scaled rapidly during Covid-19, PINT is now raising funds for an outreach van to reach three further East London boroughs currently turning away referrals. This is a rare opportunity to back a high-impact, community-rooted charity delivering remarkable impact at very low cost.

School And Family Works

Nominated by Anja Batista Sönksen
The School and Family Works is a West London charity helping disadvantaged children thrive at school. Founded by an educational psychotherapist with a background in children's services, they bring together children and their parents in weekly therapist-led groups across 12 primary schools in areas of high deprivation, using multi-family therapy to rebuild relationships, confidence, and trust. An independent evaluation by academics from Cambridge and the LSE found that every single child reported positive emotional change, with over 90% of families experiencing stronger parent-child relationships. This is an opportunity to support a deeply human, evidence-backed charity doing quietly transformative work in some of London's most underserved communities.
