Raising money and awareness for children’s charities in the UK and abroad.
We are Advanta Foundation.
Creating futures.
The Advanta Group has always nurtured a strong social policy.
This, along with an increasing obligation to help those less fortunate than ourselves, led us to set up our own charity, the Advanta Foundation (previously called One 4 Kids) back in 2005.
The charity has always been a group-wide initiative which staff in our Glasgow and London offices have been passionately committed to.
Throughout the years, our calendar has always been peppered with fundraising events, big and small, that were designed to raise money for children’s charities both in the UK and abroad.Craig Webster, CEO
About us.
Over the past 16 years, we have hosted a huge number of social fundraisers and also undertaken a large number of physical challenges including climbing Kilimanjaro and traveling from summit to sea in Borneo to name only a few.
We have also, in the past 10 years, run a number of volunteer programmes in Vietnam and more recently, Tanzania.
A large number of children’s charities, both at home and overseas, have benefited from our donations over the years. These include, but are not exclusive to, the Children’s Hospice Association for Scotland, The Jeely Piece Club, The Music for Life Program in Kenya, The Tunahaki Foundation in Tanzania, The Catalyst Foundation and the School of Excellence in Namanditi, Tanzania.
We have always funded 100% of all events and trips which means that every single penny ever raised has gone to help a child in need. Our rule has always been that for every pound raised, 50p is given to charities in the UK and 50p is given to charities overseas.

“David at Advanta made the whole process of my product (mortgage) transfer quick and easy. He explained everything in detail and I couldn’t fault the customer service shown. Would definitely recommend Advanta to fellow players as they provided a first-class service

"I couldn’t recommend using the Advanta Group highly enough. Being a first-time buyer, the world of mortgages, deposits, interest rates etc was new to me.
Thankfully, I had been put in contact with David from Advanta right at the start of my buying process.
He simplified everything for me and was open and honest with the answers to my many questions. For the time and effort David has shown me, it has been amazing value for money – thanks again!"
