As the Starr Trust looks back on another year of changing young lives, Chairman Rob Starr MBE reflects on what success truly means for the charity…

“It’s been another strong year for the Starr Trust. Unlike a business, where success is measured in profits, our measure of a ‘good year’ is how many young lives we’ve been able to support. At the Starr Trust, 100% of our income goes directly to those who need it most – and this year, despite national financial challenges and a deliberate reduction in the number of events we hosted, we still raised enough to fund multiple applications every single month. That’s a lot of lives changed for the better, and a lot of inspiration shared.

I remain deeply grateful to our incredible office team, our dedicated Board of Trustees, and our tireless Funding Team. Their commitment never wavers. I also want to thank our supporters – both individuals and companies – who continue to choose us, even with so many charities competing for their attention.

We are so thankful to everyone who has fundraised for us through their own events this year and truly hope we will see the continued support of our existing sponsors as well as welcoming new supporters to our cause. With this help, we are able to focus even more on making a real difference to the young people who reach out to us, as well as continuing to fund new applications every month.

Thank you to everyone who gives their time, energy, and support to the Starr Trust. And well done to every single young person who not only reached out for help, but then put everything into becoming the very best version of themselves.” – Rob Starr MBE, Chairman & Founder of the Starr Trust.
