Fundraising & Partnerships

The Carr Fenton Foundation has always been powered by partnership. From small businesses to national funders, collaboration helps us achieve more for children, young people and adults with additional needs.

In 2023/24 we were proud to work alongside 21 corporate partners, including Amazon, Fellowes, IKEA, Volker Rail and the Doncaster Junior Lawyers Division, whose combined support strengthened every part of the Foundation. Their generosity funded new training rooms, wellbeing equipment and accessible environments – real-world results of shared values in action.
