The Valesco Foundation
Impact First. Real Estate Excellence Always.
At The Valesco Group, our purpose is impact. We believe real estate is more than an asset class - it is the engine that allows us to create meaningful, measurable change in the communities we serve. That belief is the reason we launched The Valesco Foundation.
Each year, we dedicate a share of our profits to charitable initiatives across the UK, with a particular focus on grassroots organisations driving real, systemic change.
Our commitment is simple: to use our platform, our performance and our people to deliver positive impact at scale. The Valesco Foundation is the “why” behind everything we do, ensuring that philanthropy is not just part of our business model - it is the purpose that guides it.

The Focus
The Valesco Foundation focuses on education, poverty relief, human rights and equality, and health and life-saving initiatives.
I want to say a huge thank you for being one of the first funders to support the Club. Your funding helped us to hire a Head of Community into the team and I cannot express how much of a game-changer it has been to have her leading our communities. Thanks to her, we have been able to upskill our student leaders on the ground, enabling them to deliver 520 events on campus last year (up from 385 in 2023, and totalling more than 1 a day!). Your funding also provided credibility to the charity, enabling us to attract those funders who are not comfortable with being first movers. Thank you for believing in us before others could, we will always be grateful for that.

“Social impact is the essence of our organisation. It’s an incredible privilege and the purpose of our existence.”

“On behalf of Hand on Heart Charitable Trust, we extend our deepest gratitude for your generous grant allocation. Your support is truly transformative and will enable us to further our mission, ensuring that we continue to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those we serve. At HoH Charitable Trust, our vision is for a fairer society – one where the vulnerable find stability, rough sleepers maintain their dignity, the most excluded feel included, and homelessness is eradicated. We also want to express our appreciation for the hands-on involvement of your team. Seeing you join us for the Charing Cross distributions at each campaign, actively serving those in need, is both refreshing and inspiring. Your willingness to engage directly with our outreach efforts speaks volumes about your dedication to making a real difference.”
Co-Founder of Hand on Heart
What sets Valesco apart is how seamlessly the Group and Foundation work together to drive real social impact. Through inspiring partnerships with charities like Hand on Heart and the Patchwork Foundation, I’ve seen first-hand how our team - from graduates to board members - actively supports social mobility through mentoring, masterclasses and volunteering. It’s rare to feel this connected to purpose in a corporate setting, and it’s something I truly value.
