In 2025, more than 80% of our fundraising efforts have been aimed at local causes, from Birmingham Women’s and Children’s Hospital caring for sick children and young people to The Henry Allen Trust in Milton Keynes, which is a charity supporting children and their families battling childhood cancers, to Somebody Cares, a local retail charity in Aberdeen.
Highlights include David Lloyd Chigwell, raising an impressive £26,000 for Chabad Lubavitch, North East London and Essex Foodbank with members and team members taking part in a 12-hour Spinathon.
David Lloyd Newbury raised a massive £56,000 for New Life Babies, which provides neo-natal equipment to as many special care baby units as possible, improving the chances of a new baby surviving and thriving. The Club held a 24-hour sportathon and fun day.
David Lloyd Chorley, raised £13,000 for the local Derian House Childrens Hospice with members completing a sponsored bike ride from Buckingham Palace to Derian House.
National and international charities have also benefitted from our team members and members determination to help others. This includes Children in Need, The Stroke Association, UKE in Germany and A.A.P in Italy where Clubs ran a range of different events including a swim relay, charity fundraising ball, a half marathon walk, a skipping challenge and a bake sale.
We’re proud to be working with kitround for a third year across our UK Clubs. kitround helps give pre-loved sportswear and kit a second life, keeping it in use for longer and out of landfill.
Last year, thanks to the incredible generosity of our members and team members, more than 12,000 items of sportswear and kit were donated, raising £25,000 for the Youth Sport Trust and preventing 3,800kg from going to landfill.
This year, we’re hoping to go even further and make an even bigger difference together.
The David Lloyd Clubs Together Foundation
We’re proud to have launched the David Lloyd Clubs Together Foundation - our very own registered charity, with a single purpose: to change lives through the power of movement.
The Together Foundation is dedicated to improving the lives of children who face the greatest barriers through fitness and wellbeing.
Children don’t need a reason to move. They just need the opportunity. That's why the Together Foundation is working to create more opportunities for children through fitness and wellbeing.
Raising funds for the homeless
Since February 2020 we have been in partnership with Change Please, selling their award-winning coffee in our UK Clubs, with every cup sold helping someone’s life change for the better. All profit from Change Please goes towards people experiencing homelessness and offers them a living wage, a job, housing, training and onwards opportunities.
Giving sportswear and kit another round
This September, we're proud to be working with kitround for the third year across our UK Clubs, helping to keep pre-loved sportswear and equipment in circulation and out of waste.
Last year, thanks to the support of our members and team members, more than 12,000 pre-loved items were donated. This September, we want to beat that incredible total, collecting even more pre-loved sportswear and kit to give it a new lease of life and keep it in use for longer.
And the impact doesn't stop there. The resale value of items collected across our Clubs will be donated to the David Lloyd Clubs Together Foundation, helping to fund more Move Together and Swim Together programmes and create more opportunities for children to move more.
Better for our communities. Better for the planet. And plenty more life left in that kit.
Here's to another round.
Partnering with Children in Need
We are proud to be BBC Children in Need’s official Health and Wellbeing Partner. From bake sales to Pudsey group exercise takeovers and Bearpee Challenges, together we’ve shown the power of community and the difference we can make when we come together for a worthy cause.
Our fundraising efforts have been a great success and we’ve raised over £500,000 since November 2023. This fantastic achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the dedication, generosity and support of our members, employees and the entire David Lloyd Clubs community. Everyone’s contribution will make a significant impact on the lives of countless children in need.
The Trussell Trust
We’ve been working with the The Trussell Trust since March this year, collecting food donations across our business to help end hunger in the UK. Giving back to the community is incredibly important to us at David Lloyd Clubs and this is just the start of our work with the Trust. Contributions from members and team members will help The Trussell’s Trust’s vital work supporting a network of food banks across the UK who provide emergency support to people facing hardship.
