Who are we?
Shaw Trust is a charity helping to transform the lives of young people and adults across the UK and internationally. Our specialist services help people gain an education, enter work, develop their career, improve their wellbeing or rebuild their lives. We add value to every service we deliver by investing back into the people and communities we support.
We are one of the largest 25 charities in the UK. We use our combined experience of over 75 years to support people to develop their potential. We have one goal: to help transform the lives of one million young people and adults each year by 2022.
Working with us gives you far more benefits than a standard package; it gives you the chance to help turn someone’s life around.
