Unlocking Impactful Opportunities: How Capita's Levy Gifting is Empowering NSPCC's Workforce

The NSPCC is a cornerstone of child protection in the UK and play a vital role in preventing abuse in the UK. Capita’s levy-gifting has enabled the NSPCC to deliver critical training through the Corndel Diploma in Leadership and Management. This initiative ensures NSPCC managers and leaders are equipped with the skills and confidence they need to oversee life-changing services and create resilient teams that can respond to the complex challenges of child protection.

Capita’s 1 million contribution has set a powerful example of corporate responsibility, illustrating how strategic partnerships can deliver measurable benefits for society. This vital funding has enabled the charity to invest in its people, driving professional development and fostering innovation across the organisation. The impact of this investment has been profound, ensuring that NSPCC employees benefit from continued growth, which in turn strengthens their ability to deliver crucial services.

With Capita’s levy-gifting, NSPCC is strengthening its leadership by upskilling key personnel through the Corndel Diploma in Leadership and Management. This initiative empowers managers and senior leaders with the knowledge and confidence needed to oversee vital services and lead teams that are resilient, agile, and innovative.

By investing in leadership, Capita’s support is enabling NSPCC to:

• Develop leaders who drive strategic change
• Enhance innovation in service delivery
• Build a workforce that is highly skilled and adaptable to future challenges

Capita’s forward-thinking approach to levy-gifting highlights the potential for businesses to achieve dual outcomes: supporting essential charitable causes while meeting corporate social responsibility (CSR) objectives. By redirecting unspent levy funds to the NSPCC, Capita has not only reinforced its commitment to children’s welfare but also set a benchmark for how organisations can leverage the Apprenticeship Levy for social good. Capita’s model of compassionate levy-gifting sets the standard we seek for future partnerships.

The Corndel Levy Pledge is at the heart of this initiative, addressing a pressing issue in the charitable sector – the underutilisation of available funds. Many charities struggle to stay afloat because of economic challenges and a decline in charitable donations. Since its inception, the Corndel Levy Pledge has successfully redirected over £5 million of unused Levy funds to charities over the past three years. 

Capita’s exemplary use of the apprenticeship levy highlights the immense potential for businesses to have a real-world impact on the effectiveness of charities in the UK. Organisations can empower the third sector by carefully allocating unspent levy funds, upskilling individuals, fostering leadership, and building resilient communities. We invite organisations to explore the power of levy-gifting and consider how their unspent funds can be leveraged to contribute to vital causes. Together, we can create a brighter, more inclusive future for all.
