About us
What we do and why
Supporting the industry for nearly 200 years
With a history stretching back almost 200 years, we are one of the UK’s oldest benevolent charities.
The Printing Charity was originally established to support printers and their dependents, but as society and print has evolved, so too has the definition of our sector and those we help.
Our mission is to be the leading charity in the printing, paper, publishing, packaging, and graphics sector. Operating nationally, we provide practical, emotional, and financial support for people in crisis as well as championing young talent within our vibrant industry.
