About the Charity Fund
The Charity was founded in 1972. Our objective is to take 150 local children in need on an annual outing by taxi, which they might not otherwise get.
We also hold an Easter Party at St Thomas Moore School, Westcliff for sick and disabled children and their families and/or carers.
By invitation of the London Taxi Drivers Charity fund we take 50 children to an annual event at the Grosvenor House Hotel, Park Lane, which is attended by various Celebrities from stage, television and the music industry.
We have our own Minibus which we use for various other local events e.g. the airport, fire station and police station.
Fundraising Events
Throughout the year we hold many fundraising events which include: high street mile of coins collection, quiz nights and tombola's.
We also give talks to clubs, schools and various organisations free of cost, but do ask for a donation.
How to Help
Sponsor a child for £30 for the day to cover dinner, drinks, pocket money and a goodie bag.
Support other events by a cash donation of your choice.
Take a collection box for your club or workplace.
Donate Tombola prizes and/or toys or anything for a child aged 5 – 9 (for the goodie bags)
Hold your own event and donate proceeds to the Charity.
Volunteer your time at one of our events (over 18's only)
Ask your school to get involved.
Although our events are very successful we still need your help to reach our annual target of £15,000.
