Founded in 1827 by Victorian philanthropists, The Printing Charity was originally established to support printers and their dependents. This remains our mission today, but as society and the industry have evolved, the ways we do this have changed ☺️ Our mission is to be the leading charity in the printing, paper, packaging, graphics and publishing sectors. We provide practical, emotional, and financial support for people in crisis as well as championing young talent within our vibrant industry. Thank you to everyone who’s played a part in our journey so far. Learn more below 👇 https://bit.ly/3zIglUq #PrintSector #PeopleInPrint #Charity

Many congratulations to all four ⭐️
This year we are absolutely delighted that four of our staff have received a Rising Star Award from The Printing Charity. Chace V., Daniel Greyson, Jake Raynor and Jacob Morton will all receive £1500 to invest in professional development and training to help support their careers. The winners were all invited to The House of Lords on Thursday 4th July to receive their awards, a huge achievement and very well deserved.

The Printing Charity reposted this
Industry members and the industry’s next generation of Rising Stars gathered at The House of Lords yesterday (July 4th) to celebrate this year’s winners. No risk of being overshadowed by certain political events taking place, the evening was hosted by Printing Charity 2024 President Baroness Morgan of Coates, and celebrated the 61 Rising Star Award winners of 2024. As always, the awards attracted entrants from across the industry including paper, packaging, graphics, and publishing. This year, almost £84,000 will be awarded by the charity across 105 courses selected by the winners. The Printing Charity #2024RisingStars
