We’re pleased to let you know that The Creative Dimension Trust has been selected to take part in the Big Give Christmas Challenge 2025, the UK’s largest match-funding campaign.
When the public donates to a charity through a Big Give campaign, they ask funders (philanthropists, foundations or corporates) to match that donation. So, £50 from a member of the public, becomes £100 for TCDT.
During the seven-day Christmas Challenge, any donation made to TCDT via theBigGive.org.uk will be doubled. AKO Foundation, our assigned Big Give Champion, have generously committed to doubling public donations up to a total of £3,000.
If you are planning to support us this year, these dates are the ideal time to do so. In a climate of ongoing school budget cutbacks, your contribution will go even further – directly enabling more young people to access our free workshops, specialist tuition, work-experience opportunities and pathways into higher education and employment.
We would also be incredibly grateful if you could share this opportunity with your networks – friends, colleagues, community groups, or organisations who may be interested in supporting young people through our programmes.
