The Leasing Foundation has announced employment and education charity Coach Core as its charity partner for 2025.

Coach Core, a UK-based organisation, uses sports and apprenticeships to empower young adults facing barriers such as discrimination and limited opportunities.

By working with national and local employers, Coach Core creates lasting positive change in marginalised communities through high-quality sports and physical activities led by relatable young role models.

The Leasing Foundation is dedicated to supporting individuals across the business finance industry. Through a focus on innovation, young people, EDI, sustainability and giving, the Foundation brings people together to drive growth and create a stronger, more inclusive sector. Partnering with charities is a key part of this work, enabling the industry to give back and make a real difference to causes and communities close to its heart.

Gary Laybourne, CEO and founder of Coach Core. said: “We’re thrilled that the Leasing Foundation has chosen Coach Core as its charity of the year. While fundraising is important, I am most excited about working with the Foundation’s network of engaged businesses. Everything we do is about partnership and collaboration; it is the USP behind our successful apprenticeship model and it is how we like to build powerful charitable partnerships too.  From impactful events to skills and insights, through to workshops and training, I feel this partnership will unlock extensive opportunities for all. I sincerely look forward to working with the Leasing Foundation to maximise this truly amazing opportunity to the best of our abilities.”

Mel Chell, Leasing Foundation ‘Giving’ lead and CEO of Solaris Law, said: “Coach Core is an exceptional charity, helping young people gain skills for work and life while building their confidence. We are proud to support Gary and his team this year. The Leasing Foundation is passionate about nurturing diverse future talent, so our mission aligns perfectly with that of Coach Core. We look forward to bringing the industry together to support this cause.”
