Franklyn Supports Congleton Charity with £1,000 SJP Foundation Grant

At Franklyn, we’re passionate about supporting the communities around us. Alongside helping our clients achieve their financial goals, we’re proud to connect local charities with funding opportunities that can make a real difference.

Recently, we were delighted to support Circus Starr, a Congleton-based charity, with an application to the St. James’s Place Charitable Foundation. We’re pleased to share that their application was successful, resulting in a £1,000 grant to support the charity’s incredible work.

Known as “the circus with a purpose”, Circus Starr creates magical, inclusive circus experiences for children and families who may otherwise miss out due to disability, financial hardship or challenging life circumstances. Their performances are designed to be welcoming and accessible, ensuring every child can enjoy the excitement and wonder of the circus in a supportive environment.

For almost 40 years, Circus Starr has worked with businesses and community organisations across the UK to provide free tickets to children and families who need them most, creating unforgettable memories and bringing joy to thousands of people every year.

As a business with strong roots in Cheshire, it was a privilege to support a local charity whose values align so closely with our own commitment to giving back. We’re thrilled that the SJP Foundation recognised the fantastic work Circus Starr does and awarded this funding to help them continue making a positive impact.

Congratulations to everyone at Circus Starr – we’re proud to have played a small part in helping secure this funding and look forward to seeing the difference it makes.
