Talent exists everywhere. Opportunity does not.

At LTSB, we work with bright, motivated young people from disadvantaged backgrounds who have the potential to succeed in professional careers but lack access to networks, guidance, support and opportunity.

Through sector-specific training, employer partnerships and sustained pastoral support, we help young people secure meaningful employment and build long-term careers.

We cannot do this without the support of individuals and organisations who believe that background should not determine future success.

Make a One-Off or Monthly Donation

Your donation helps remove the practical and personal barriers that prevent young people from accessing sustainable employment.

£10

£10 could help cover travel costs for a young person attending an interview

£40

£40 could support essential work expenses such as professional clothing or transport

£100

£100 could help fund ongoing pastoral support during the first months of employment

You can make a one-off gift or choose to give monthly. Regular donations are especially valuable as they allow us to plan ahead, commit to supporting more young people and provide consistent support beyond job placement.

Other Ways to Support

Payroll Giving

(Give As You Earn)

Payroll Giving is a simple and tax-efficient way to make regular donations to LTSB directly from your salary.

Your donation is taken from your gross pay after National Insurance but before Income Tax is calculated. This means you receive the full value of tax relief immediately – making it particularly effective for medium and higher rate taxpayers.

Because your gift is taken before tax, it costs you less while LTSB receives the full amount.

Trusts & Foundations

We are proud to work in partnership with both corporate and charitable trusts and foundations that share our commitment to improving social mobility across the UK. This Funding supports:

  • Delivery of our sector-focused employment programmes
  • One-to-one pastoral support for young people
  • Impact measurement and evaluation
  • Organisational development and long-term sustainability

We provide clear output and outcome reporting , including programme completion rates, employment outcomes and retention data. We also capture the authentic voice of young people, through quotes, case studies and our Alumni community.

If you represent a trust or foundation we would love to talk to you and see how together we can transform young lives. Please contact our Income Generation Team.

Corporate Support

Corporate partners play a vital role in enabling our work and widening access to professional careers. Companies can support LTSB through:

  • Strategic partnerships aligned to early careers or ESG objectives
  • Charity of the Year partnerships
  • Corporate donations and sponsorship
  • Employee fundraising initiatives
  • Matched funding
  • Payroll giving schemes
  • Volunteering and mentoring opportunities that directly support young people

Partnering with LTSB allows organisations to contribute meaningfully to social mobility while engaging employees in purposeful, skills-based activity. To explore partnership opportunities, please contact our Income Generation Team.

Major Gifts & Philanthropy

Philanthropic support enables transformational growth. Significant gifts allow us to expand into new regions, deepen support for particularly vulnerable groups and invest in long-term organisational sustainability.

We welcome confidential conversations with individuals, family foundations or advisers considering a major gift and can provide tailored information on purpose, impact, strategy and future plans. Please contact our Income Generation Team.

Leave a Gift in Your Will

A gift in your will to LTSB is a powerful way to ensure that talented young people are not limited by their background for generations to come.

Our work depends on the generosity of people who believe that opportunity should be based on potential, not circumstance. A legacy gift of any size helps secure the long-term future of our programmes and the young people we support.

Types of legacy gift

There are three main ways to leave a gift to LTSB:

Residuary

A percentage (or the remainder) of your estate after other gifts and expenses have been distributed.

Pecuniary

A fixed sum of money.

Specific

A particular asset, such as shares, property or personal items.

Residuary gifts are often the most flexible option, as they retain their proportional value over time.

Donate by Bank Transfer (BACS)

If you would prefer to donate via bank transfer, please contact us for our bank details.

How to sign up

To set up Payroll Giving, you need to enrol directly through your employer. Please speak to your HR or Payroll department and nominate LTSB as your chosen charity.

Employers operate Payroll Giving through HMRC-approved Payroll Giving Agencies (PGAs). Once registered, donations are deducted from salary each month and transferred to LTSB.

If you set up Payroll Giving, we would be grateful if you could let us know so we can thank you properly.

If you are an employer interested in offering Payroll Giving and would like support introducing LTSB to your employees, please contact us.

Regular Payroll Giving provides predictable income that enables us to support more young people into meaningful careers.
