About us

Chelsea Building Society Charitable Foundation was launched in 2000 to provide a focus for Chelsea's charitable giving. The Charitable Foundation has enabled Chelsea Building Society to make donations to a huge variety of charitable causes in our area of operations.

We focus our support on causes which really benefit local communities: helping the homeless for example, or supporting vulnerable groups such as the elderly, the mentally ill and the disabled, health, money advice services, security and community safety.

The Charitable Foundation is independent of Chelsea Building Society and has its own separate Board of Trustees.

The trustees favour smaller charities, local charities or local appeals from national charities.

In particular, we are keen to support community based charities where small donations can make a difference to local people's lives.
