Each year, the partners at C. Hoare & Co. donate up to 10% of the bank’s profits to the Golden Bottle Trust (GBT), which makes grants to a wide range of charitable causes. To maximise the GBT’s positive social and environmental impact, it’s crucial to consider both grants and investments as part of the resources that can be used. It calls this concept total portfolio impact. In 2011, 10% of the GBT’s portfolio was committed to impact investments, this rose gradually over the years, reaching 100% in 2019.

At the Golden Bottle Trust (GBT), the Hoare family uses a philanthropic profiling tool called Care4Most (www.care4most.org) to establish which causes mean the most to family members. Recently, the GBT’s focus on environmental projects intensified, with the funding target rising from 11% in 2018 to 20% in 2022. To maximise its impact, the GBT partnered with Impatience Earth to develop an 'ecosystem granting' strategy. This approach uses multiple smaller grants to address the interconnected nature of environmental issues, supporting solutions from the planting and preservation of seagrass to regenerative agriculture.

The Golden Bottle Trust (GBT) was established in 1985 to further the philanthropic aims of the Hoare family. This approach mirrors our business ethos – prioritising long-term decisions and fostering trusted relationships. The GBT likes to give unrestricted funding; it recognises that the charities it works with are the experts in their fields and trusts them to allocate funds to deliver the best outcomes. One of the GBT’s longstanding partnerships is with a grant-making charity called The Fore. The Fore provides grants to small charities, and has had a huge impact, with 50% of the charities in its pilot programme now operating nationally. It has used unrestricted grants from the GBT to fund core costs, allowing it to build and scale the infrastructure required to deliver its operations.

Each year, the partners of C. Hoare & Co. donate up to 10% of the bank’s profits to the Golden Bottle Trust (GBT), which makes grants to a wide range of charitable causes. The top 300 foundation grant-makers in the UK donated £3.7bn in 2021-22. Although the GBT’s contribution to this is comparatively small, the Hoare family believes it can play an important role through funding early-stage initiatives that prove a model; this allows larger resources to follow once the approach has been validated. An example of catalytic funding is the GBT’s support of Project Limitless, a charity set up to provide children with soft prosthetic limbs. The family could see how these custom designed limbs allow children to do so much more than is possible with standard NHS prosthetics and was delighted to be able to fund a ladder of pilot projects which allowed Project Limitless to demonstrate the success of their approach and scale activities accordingly.
