About The King's Trust
The King’s Trust believes that every young person should have the chance to succeed, no matter what their background or the challenges they are facing. They help those from disadvantaged communities and those facing the greatest adversity by supporting them to build the confidence and skills to live, learn and earn.

• £5 could pay for a young person to travel to a job interview
• £10 could fund a call to our helpline, enabling a vulnerable young person gain the critical advice they need

• £30 could provide one young person with a mentor to provide vital guidance and support
• £50 could cover the cost of a young person's commute before their first pay check, a barrier that could otherwise prevent them from holding down their first job
