Trust matters — especially when it comes to children.
That's why Child Relief was built carefully, transparently, and with strong governance from day one. Below are the clear, verifiable reasons donors choose to trust us.
🏛️ Governance & Accountability
✅ UK Registered Charity
Child Relief is officially registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (Charity Number: 1139451). You can independently verify our registration, trustees, and filings at any time on the Charity Commission website.
✅ Full Charity Commission Compliance
We submit all statutory filings, annual returns, and accounts on time and in full. No warnings. No compliance issues. No red flags. Our record reflects strong governance and responsible management.
✅ Experienced, Independent Trustee Board
Our Trustee Board includes NHS consultants, a GP, and senior professionals with 15+ years' experience in finance and the charity sector. Trustees provide independent oversight and challenge, ensuring donations are used responsibly.
✅ Two Dedicated Bank Accounts
To support transparency and financial control, we maintain two separate bank accounts: One for programme funds and one for organisational running costs. This clear separation supports accurate tracking, accountability, and donor confidence.
🌍 Programmes & Delivery
👶 A Child-Specialist Charity
Child Relief is a child-focused charity. Everything we do — programmes, governance, and fundraising — is designed around the dignity, wellbeing, and happiness of children in crisis. We don't treat children as an afterthought. They are our entire focus.
🚚 On the Ground in Crisis Countries
For over two years, we've been delivering aid to children across Gaza & Palestine, Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Rohingya communities. Our teams and trusted partners are on the ground right now, delivering real support where it's needed most.
🤝 Experienced Delivery Partners
We work with experienced, vetted partners who understand humanitarian delivery, safeguarding requirements, and local contexts and needs. This ensures aid is delivered safely, effectively, and responsibly.
📸 Transparent, Real Impact Evidence
We regularly publish real photos and videos from our distributions. No stock images. No AI-generated visuals. No staged content. What you see is real aid, real children, real impact.
💝 Donors Amanah
💯 Clear 100% Donation Policy
We operate a transparent 100% donation policy. Donations are applied to programme-related work that helps children, while organisational running costs are covered separately through Gift Aid, grants, and optional support. This policy is approved by our Trustees and applied consistently through clear financial controls.
📱 Immediate Donation Confirmation
Every donation receives an instant SMS notification and an instant donation receipt. This gives donors immediate reassurance, proof of transaction and peace of mind.
📞 Donation Hotline
We offer direct donor support through our donation hotline: 03000 300 300. Real people. Real support. No unanswered questions.
🏅 Registered with the Fundraising Regulator
We are registered with the Fundraising Regulator, meaning our fundraising practices follow recognised standards of fairness, transparency, and ethical conduct. This gives donors peace of mind that our fundraising is independently overseen and accountable.

From day one, we chose:
