Daycare Trust’s objective is to secure access to high quality affordable childcare for all children in Great Britain, where and when they and their parents and carers want and need it, and at a price they can afford.
We've come a long way with our work, but there remains a considerable way to go before this is achieved. With your support, we hope to be able to achieve our objectives.There are a number of ways that you can support us.
We are committed to high standards and are clear about who we are, our purpose, and how we use the money we raise. We respect the privacy of our supporters and beneficiaries, and do not put pressure on you if you do not wish to give, or for us to contact you. We hold ourselves accountable for all our actions.
