The Guardian’s Hope appeal has so far raised more than £850,000 thanks to generous readers’ continuing support for our five inspirational charity partners, whose work aims to tackle division, racism and hatred.

The 2025 Guardian appeal is raising funds for five charities: Citizens UK, the Linking Network, Locality, Hope Unlimited Charitable Trust and Who is Your Neighbour?.
