Over £470,000 donated to charity

Together, we have accomplished something truly extraordinary. With your incredible support, we have proudly donated £470,000 to an inspiring range of charitable organisations – over 30 in total. This milestone would not have been possible without our wonderful customers and team members, and every penny raised has contributed to making a real difference.

  • National Trust

    We are proud to have supported the National Trust by donating over £190,000. With Sophie’s love for nature, this meaningful donation, combined with the National Trust’s work for conservation and wildlife has specifically helped aid woodland and tree conservation. The National Trust protects and cares for places so people and nature can thrive, from looking after the nation’s coastline and historic sites to countryside and green spaces.

  • Zoological Society of London (ZSL)

    We are proud to have worked closely with ZSL, donating a total of £130,000 with funds going specifically to ZSL’s global conservation projects where they work to restore wildlife. ZSL is a science-driven conservation charity, and its vision for the future is a world where wildlife thrives, creating a more balanced, connected, and vibrant world where people and wildlife live better together.

  • The National Garden Scheme

    We are so pleased to have donated £12,700 to the National Garden Scheme. This incredible charity supports some of the UK’s best-loved nursing and health charities and has many personal connections to the Sophie Allport team, including Macmillan Cancer Support, Marie Curie, Hospice UK, Carers Trust, The Queen’s Nursing Institute, and Parkinson’s UK.

  • The Stroke Association

    This charity is personal to the founders Sophie and Jem Allport. We have donated over £25,000 to the Stroke Association, which provides life-changing specialist support, funds vital research, and campaigns to ensure everyone affected by strokes gets the best care and support to rebuild their lives.

  • Giving back

    We are always keen to support charities where possible and are pleased to have donated to some incredible causes over the years through a range of initiatives. We have donated to over 30 charities, including the Alzheimer’s Society, Buglife, The Royal Hospital Chelsea, Meningitis Now, Asthma + Lung UK, CALM, Heads Together, The Wildlife Trusts, The Wild at Heart Foundation, and the Ruth Strauss Foundation, all of which play a vital role in improving lives and protecting nature.

  • In the community

    Giving back to our local community is equally important to us. We have worked to raise funds for the local food bank, the air ambulance, Lincoln Cathedral, and we actively support our employees with their charitable efforts. We will contribute 25% to any funds raised by our employees for charity (up to £250 per year), plus each year they receive a paid day in the community to volunteer with a charity or community group of their choice.

"We are deeply passionate about creating positive change for people, the planet, and nature. Supporting these remarkable charities has always been a part of our story. Each organisation we have worked with holds a special place in our hearts, and we are grateful to have had the opportunity to contribute to their vital work. Thank you for being part of this journey - we’re excited to continue making a difference together."
