Story

Join us today to take part in retail's biggest secret Santa!

Now is a challenging time for those working in retail. Financial instability, uncertainty, constant change and social disconnection has made everyday life even more worrying.

To spread a little festive sparkle during this extremely difficult time, we would love for you to take part in retail's biggest secret Santa.

Donate a minimum of £5 and you will receive a surprise gift from retailTRUST this Christmas*. Your donation will be used to provide much-needed support to our retail colleagues and their families during their time of need.

- £40 helps us process one grant application

- £480 enables us to deliver six sessions of counselling to a colleague in need

*Remember to opt-in to our email communications so you can receive your gift this Christmas!

So far this year, we have awarded over £700,000 in non-repayable grants and delivered more than 4,500 counselling sessions.

I feel proud to work in the retail sector, and the support given by retailTRUST is invaluable to myself and the millions of people that work within it. Thank you once again!

Philip Coates, Transport Section Leader, Aldi

Thank you for your support. I will rest much better now that I know I can keep a roof over my three boys and feed them. Beneficiary supported following the fire at

The Mall Walthamstow

I would most definitely recommend retailTRUST because the charity have supported me with financial provision, which in these unprecedented times, I could not have obtained.

Esther Umoh, university student

The support has made a huge difference to our lives as everything is so tight and difficult with my partner unable to work ever again. I would highly recommend retailTRUST as I feel someone has listened to what I am going through and been able to make a big difference.

Andrea, Retail Assistant, Next

The counselling sessions helped so much and was just the support I needed. I personally have benefited immensely from the service offered by retailTRUST and I'm extremely grateful, so thank you!

Wendy, Design Sales Assistant, Magnet
