Sustainability isn’t just for the corporate world! It’s becoming a vital part of how charities can deliver long-term impact. But where do you start when time, budget and capacity are already stretched? At In Kind Direct, we’ve been learning as we go, exploring our environmental impact and making changes where we can. Our journey has been far from perfect, but we’d love to share with you what we’ve learnt along the way.

We’re excited to introduce our new Network Ambassadors Programme. We’re inviting organisations in our network to collaborate even more closely with us— to help us forge partnerships together, promote the impact we achieve together, and share insights that can help to drive change together. Apply today!

Through the Fresh Futures Fund, we have dedicated funding to support 100 small organisations in our network to access essential products that will support the wellbeing of young people and those who are NEET. Check your eligibility and apply today!

Celeste and Katie from our Policy and Research Team explain the brand new research we’ve recently launched and our advocacy strategy for 2024.

Most of the boxes of products we send to you are delivered by DPD.  There are some brilliant features on their new website designed to keep you informed about the progress of your delivery and help you save delivery preferences. 

662 of you kindly took the time to respond to our January Impact Survey, telling us what products mean for your organisation and the people you support and what you most need. Read more to find out key insights.

2024 is the 4th year of our five year strategy, where we want to work with more organisations, unlock more savings for you and the sector, and support even more people together.

We actively support changes that will reduce the cost of essential goods for organisations like yours and the people you support, and that support companies to donate more products – including targeted VAT relief.   

We are currently offering the following additional benefits to help our network of charitable organisations access more products and services with significant savings. From office supplies to training courses, we’ve got you covered.
