Previous campaigns
Since the launch of Customers Who Care in 1994, we've campaigned on a wide range of issues relating to our Ethical Policy and we've donated more than £4 million to over 80 charities and organisations.
One of our first campaigns called for a ban on the use of landmines – now banned in 155 countries. Since then we've campaigned on a wide range of issues from Fairtrade to human rights, safer chemicals to youth poverty.
Thank you to all our customers who have supported our campaigns over the years, whether by taking part in our charity vote, signing petitions, writing to MPs or simply by banking with us and spending on your credit or debit cards.
See how you can get involved with this year’s Customers Who Care campaign.
