Little Feet Trust
Charity 1160387
Overview
Summary
Little Feet Trust appears to position itself as a broad poverty-relief and development organisation centred on disadvantaged children and young people in Bangladesh and the United Kingdom. Its stated approach combines grants, direct support, advice and resource-sharing, suggesting a role that may extend beyond individual assistance into strengthening local organisations and communities. The evidence also indicates an unusually wide declared remit, creating both potential flexibility and uncertainty about which needs, places and delivery methods are most central in practice.

Evidence and reasoning
Supporting evidence
Remaining uncertainties
- The Charity Commission register records Birmingham City as a place where Little Feet Trust operates, but provides no Birmingham service, project, beneficiary, partner or site address that identifies a more specific operational area.
- The latest reported financial year ended 7 April 2025 and records £0 income and £0 expenditure. This makes it unclear whether the Birmingham declaration reflects active current delivery, retained geographic scope, or historic activity.
- The charity states that it owns and/or leases land or property, but the register does not identify its location or whether any such property is in Birmingham.
- No evidence was found of Birmingham-based delivery partnerships materially extending the charity's reach.
- The registered contact address is in Barking, London and should not be treated as a Birmingham operational site.
Additional evidence needed
- A current Little Feet Trust service or project list identifying Birmingham delivery locations, dates and delivery model.
- The latest trustees' annual report or accounts containing narrative information on activities, grants, partner organisations and property use.
- Confirmation from the charity of whether it is currently delivering services or making grants in Birmingham, and where.
- Official evidence from any Birmingham delivery partner or host venue naming Little Feet Trust and the relevant location.

Observations
A child-centred mission with a wider community-development frame
The Trust appears to use children’s wellbeing as its primary entry point while treating poverty, life skills, community capacity and environmental sustainability as connected conditions shaping that wellbeing.
Why it matters
This suggests the organisation may be more than a grant-maker for individual children: it may seek change through the systems around them, creating potential alignment with community-development and sustainability partners.

“The charity's objects include relieving poverty and advancing education through grants, particularly among disadvantaged children in Bangladesh and the United Kingdom.”

A potentially hybrid operating model
The Trust appears able to work through other organisations as well as through its own services, advice and resource activity, potentially giving it a convening or capacity-building role.
Why it matters
Understanding whether it primarily funds, delivers or connects activity is essential for identifying suitable collaborators and assessing its practical reach.
Show evidence
“The charity makes grants to organisations, provides services, provides advocacy, advice or information, and acts as an umbrella or resource body.”

A notably expansive remit may conceal strategic choices
The declared beneficiaries and activities span children, older people, disabled people, charities and the general public, alongside housing, religion, equality and employment. This may indicate flexibility, but it leaves the organisation's operational focus unclear.
Why it matters
The gap between a child-focused stated purpose and a much broader declared remit is worth investigating because it may reveal either an evolving strategy or a broad legal framework not reflected in current work.

“The charity lists children and young people, elderly people, people with disabilities, other charities or voluntary bodies, and the general public as beneficiaries.”
