Charities Aid Foundation Charities Aid Foundation Corporate giving

Every CAF story starts somewhere.

When Landsec wanted to transform lives in the communities they operate in, they turned to CAF. Our Corporate Client team worked with them to better structure and simplify their charitable giving. Energising their employees, building new partnerships, and changing futures.

Landsec's ambition for their giving


Landsec wanted to do more at a corporate level to support young people from underrepresented social economic backgrounds. Increasing the diversity of talent in the real estate industry formed part of a long-held ambition to create a charitable foundation.
 The challenge they faced was how to get there.

The company had a good idea of how they wanted to build on the culture of giving that already existed at a local level. To do this they needed a partner with the experience and knowledge to guide them along the right path to deliver their ambitions.



We provided Landsec with the perspective they needed: laying the foundations for an effective strategy that would ultimately transform its ability to support good causes across the business.

The impact

Our trusted guidance, experience and knowledge has proved invaluable in helping Landsec to transform many aspects of its corporate giving strategy and approach.



Our support has helped Landsec take a successful local approach nationwide, giving their corporate giving strategy more shape and putting it in a much better position to communicate effectively with both internal and external audiences.



The way the company makes decisions on community grants has been re-structured to give teams at Landsec sites across the UK the confidence that they are making a real difference to their communities.



The number of community grant applications has increased with volunteering also on the rise. It has energised existing employees, built new connections with new education and youth employment partners, and raised awareness of Landsec as a forward thinking, community minded organisation set on changing lives for the better. 



With our support, Landsec now has the systems in place to demonstrate the difference its support of local charities and causes is making nationwide: a standard bearer of best practice and corporate giving governance for the real estate sector.
