The Blakemore Foundation is A.F. Blakemore’s charitable trust, established by the Blakemore family to help good causes across the company's trading area.

The Foundation runs a match-funding scheme especially for independent retailers to support the community work of stores across the Meridian & Welsh Guild.

The Independent Retailer Scheme enables retailers to match fund what they’ve raised up to £200 for good causes.
