PARTNER WITH SOLEMATES
1.5 million children in the UK are estimated to attend school without adequate shoes.
Many now come from working families who simply cannot keep up with the cost of living.
School shoes are never just footwear.
They're confidence.
Inclusion.
Engagement.
Participation.
Attendance.
Belonging.
Pride.
This isn't just about shoes.
It's about empowerment.
Need exists nationwide but pressure is not evenly distributed.
This is a problem you can help solve quickly and visibly. You can create fast, meaningful impact in communities where your support is urgently needed.
We can reach real children and achieve real outcomes.
1. Brands commit support
Monthly, quarterly or annually.
2. Solemates convert funding
Into digital school shoe vouchers through trusted retail partners.
3. Schools distribute discreetly
To families who need support.
4. Children choose their own shoes
Privately and with dignity.
Partnerships are flexible and designed around your brand identity and goals.
Commit to a defined number of school shoes
Commit to a defined level of support each year. This is not an equivalent value.
The number of shoes you pledge is the exact number that will be distributed.
Support specific locations
Direct your support to the regions, cities or schools that matter to you or your brand objectives or leave us to distribute to the areas of greatest need.
Visibly connect to real world impact
Connect your brand to real, measurable support for children.
Share meaningful impact stories
Real children.
Real impact.
Real stories your brand can share across
social, PR, internal communications and ESG reporting.
