SJP Charitable Foundation
Giving back has always been a core part of what we do at SJP.
We began cultivating a giving culture at SJP early in the days when it was founded in 1992, and so we formed the St. James’s Place Charitable Foundation, with a single purpose of helping those in need. We want to make positive and lasting differences in peoples’ lives by awarding grants to charities. So far, we’ve raised and distributed over £130 million to thousands of charities across Asia and the UK, supporting the incredible and selfless work they do every day.
The Foundation has always been a very special part of the St. James’s Place business and its continued growth demonstrates clearly how special to everyone it truly is and epitomises the founding principle on which it was formed ‘to give back to those less fortunate and make a positive and lasting difference to people’s lives.

Our core themes
Our grant giving is guided by themes, with the main focus on children and young people who have special needs through illness or disability or are disadvantaged in other ways.
More recently, the Charitable Foundation expanded its focus to include charities that support people with cancer and those experiencing mental health issues.
The Charitable Foundation has been keen to support small to medium-sized charities, within the communities in which we operate, that can benefit substantially from relatively small grants. Hundreds of small charities have benefited as a result.
Recent years weren’t easy for many charities – the pandemic climate and ongoing food crisis and inflation continue to put pressure on budgets and competition for funds. This makes the work we do even more important.
