Supoprting Local Communities across KeyStore Estate

Over the past year, the KeyStore community fund has continued to make a real difference across the communities our retailers serve.

Throughout 2025/26, we've supported over 200 KeyStore retailers with local initatives - from sponsoring gala days and community events to providing sports kits and equipment for local teams and groups. The community fund helps retailers stay visible, relevant and connected within their local area.

A key focus for 2025 was supporting families and young people. In partnership with the Health Living Programme, we helped deliver 30 breakfast clubs in partnership with KeyStores, providing free, nutritious breakfasts in local schools to ensure chuldren start the day right and ready to learn.

As part of Filshill's 150th anniversary celebrations. we were able to support 150 KeyStore retailers with free meal kits to give away during the summer holidays. This targeterd support focused on communities where access to nutritious meals can be limited outside of school term time. At Christmas, KeyStore worked to donate over 8000 selection boxes across KeyStores. Partnering with local nurseries, retailers were able to give back during the festive season where funding is usually limited.

The KeyStore community funds supports our retailers to build stronger relationships, loyalty and trust within their communities, creating an emotional connection with shoppers that goes beyond price.
