How we buy goods and services
Save the Children UK’s financial vision is that every pound counts for children, and through our procurement activity we are committed to reducing the charity’s operating costs and increasing our return on investment so that maximum resource can be spent on programmes which directly benefit children.
We buy a wide range of goods and services to deliver our charitable operations and UK programmes, and we endeavour to engage with suppliers who share our values of:
