One in four people are in poverty in the UK and one in four of us will experience a mental health problem at some point in our lifetime.

Since the first lockdown in March 2020, the Retail Trust delivered over 11,000 counselling sessions and provided more than £1.2 million in financial aid to enable our vulnerable retail colleagues to pay their rent and utility bills to remain in their own homes.

With the end of furlough and more job losses looming, demand for the Retail Trusts services is forecast to escalate more than the 87% rise we experienced since the pandemic.

To enable the charity to keep on protecting and improving the lives of retail workers, we are calling on every colleague to come together and support our emergency appeal so we can continue to transform lives for good.
