About

The Serco Foundation is a charitable trust, working internationally, to enhance public service outcomes for vulnerable citizens. We do this by supporting a range of partners, including charities, research bodies, and social enterprises.

Our mission

At a time when society and governments are undergoing significant financial and structural challenges, the needs of many citizens are complex.

The Foundation exists to support these citizens. We make financial grants to a range of partners. Through our relationship with Serco, and its 90 years’ experience of public service, we also offer in-kind support, sharing the expertise of the company’s employees worldwide.

Who we support

The Foundation supports not-for-profit organisations which operate in the public service sphere, across Europe, Asia-Pacific, North America, and the Middle East, including:

  • new and innovative approaches to the delivery of public services;
  • programmes and charities supporting vulnerable citizens;
  • academic research for public benefit; and
  • programmes that foster skills development in the public sector.

We particularly, but not exclusively, welcome applications relating to Defence, Justice & Immigration, Transport, Health, and Citizen Services.
