HSBC Support Fund

Call our helpline

If you ever find yourself in a difficult situation and don’t know where to turn, Bank Workers Charity is here to help – in partnership with the HSBC Support Fund.

Founded in 1883 by bank clerks who wanted to create a safety net for colleagues and their families, we continue that mission today. If you’re a past or present HSBC employee – or the partner or dependant of one – remember that we’re here for you.

Here are five ways we can help:

Illness or disability can happen without warning. We can help with home adaptations and equipment, guidance on benefits, caring responsibilities and local support services. And if you’dbenefit from support in person, one of our caseworkers can visit you at home to offer practical help.

Money worries can affect anyone – especially after illness, bereavement or a sudden drop in income. We can help with benefits advice, budgeting, exploring grants from other charities and guidance on talking to lenders. We may also be able to provide a means-tested grant from the HSBC Support Fund.

Relationships with family are often a source of strength, but they can become strained during big life changes – such as retirement, ill health or the loss of someone close. We can provide counselling for you, your partner or dependants, giving you a safe space to talk things through.

Sometimes emotions can overwhelm us, leaving us unsure where to turn. We can help you access specialist services – including counselling – to manage stress, anxiety or other mental health challenges.

Through our partner Law Express, you can speak to qualified legal advisers for clear, confidential guidance on money, family and relationships, employment issues and more. It’sa simple way to understand your rights and next steps.
