Focus Foundation Wins Charity Champions Award for the Second Year Running
October 16, 2026
We’re incredibly proud to have been named Charity Champions at the 2026 Channel Champions Awards, winning the award for the second consecutive year.
It’s a moment to celebrate for our team, and an opportunity to thank everyone who helps us support grassroots charities across the UK. From fundraising challenges to businesses building lasting partnerships, this recognition reflects a shared commitment to giving back.
A shared achievement
The Channel Champions Awards bring together teams from across the communications industry to celebrate their achievements and contributions.
For Focus Foundation, receiving the Charity Champions award again is particularly special.
Our work depends on connections: between charities and funders, businesses and communities, and those who want to help and those already making a difference.
Every fundraiser, donation and introduction helps turn those connections into practical support.
Together, they make it possible for grassroots charities to reach further, strengthen their work and respond to the challenges facing their communities.
Celebrating the work behind the award
Across the UK, small charities provide support that can change the course of someone’s life.
These organisations bring local knowledge, care and determination to their work, and our role is to help them thrive through funding, partnerships and opportunities that support their ambitions.
To maximise Focus Foundation’s impact, our work is guided by three core pillars: supporting socially and economically disadvantaged children and young people, promoting positive mental health and wellbeing, and strengthening local communities affected by poverty, homelessness and social inequality, to drive lasting change.
These focus areas reflect the challenges and opportunities that have the greatest influence on individuals, families, and communities.
And, because Focus Group covers 100% of our running costs, every donation and pound raised goes directly to supporting grassroots charities.
Thank you for championing us and small grassroots charities
This award belongs to a much wider community than our team alone.
Thank you to our Charity Partners for the work you do every day, and to our donors, fundraisers, volunteers, Champions of Change and Focus Group friends and colleagues for helping make that work possible.
We’re delighted to celebrate a second consecutive win, and excited to keep building on what we can achieve together.
