Charity Policy
We support a focus charity each year
ETL aims to have a positive impact on society by supporting causes that matter to our employees and engaging with our communities. ‘ETL Cares’ is the primary scheme set up to provide charity support, launched in 2025 to build on the success of our charity committee’s work. Through the ETL Cares scheme we work with a focus charity each year, with volunteering and fundraising activities, to foster a strong relationship with the charity.
Fundraising Journey with The Little Princess Trust
ETL’s employee forum chose The Little Princess Trust as ETL’s focus charity for 2025. The Little Princess Trust provides free real hair wigs to children and young people, up to 24 years old, who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or other conditions. They also fund childhood cancer research, searching to find kinder and more effective treatments.
Throughout 2025, we have held a range of fundraising activities from a Walk for Wigs Summer challenge, to fitness events and employee-led silent art auctions. Our team members had the opportunity to visit the charity HQ for some volunteering work which was an eye opener and provided fantastic insight into all the hard work that takes place being the scenes.
It has been a privilege for ETL to get to know The Little Princess Trust; their incredible team and the story of the charity’s heart felt journey. More about our fundraising journey so far with our 2025 focus charity, The Little Princess Trust is available here.
