We’re not just passionate about helping our clients grow their companies, our passion for caring and development extends to our local community
Getting inner-city children into sports with Solidarity Sports
Smart Currency Business is proud to be partnered with local charity Solidarity Sports.
Solidarity Sports was set up to give disadvantaged inner-city children the opportunity to play sports together. Their vision is simple: to create ‘a world where every child who lives on the margins of society has the confidence to choose any path in life and follow it with strength and skill’.
Since its formation in 2007, the Solidarity Sports’ programmes have gone from strength to strength and now include healthy eating, art and residential field trips.

Raising awareness on City Giving Day
Organised by the London Lord Mayor’s Appeal, City Giving Day helps businesses raise awareness of the support they provide to local communities and charities.
An annual celebration, City Giving Day ‘unites the City of London in celebrating the differences made and lives changed through its charity and community partnerships’.
We’ll raise additional funds on City Giving Day
With our company-wide Pirates of the Caribbean-themed fundraising day, featuring a Caribbean buffet, treasure hunts, pirate games, quizzes and more, we’ll raise extra money for the charities we support.
