At City AM, I spend my days steeped in the news of the Square Mile. All too often, those headlines are dominated by difficult themes – economic uncertainty, geopolitics, shifting regulatory landscapes and market volatility.

City Giving Day is a moment when London's business community unites for a common cause, standing in stark contrast to the prevailing themes of economic uncertainty and division. Over the past decade, City AM has been a proud media partner of this event, growing alongside it and taking part in creative fundraising efforts. This year, the 2026 campaign is particularly significant as it tackles London's NEET crisis, an issue close to City AM's heart.
The Appeal is urging businesses not just to raise funds, but to invest in young people's futures and their potential as the city's future workforce. Participation in City Giving Day is more crucial than ever, as it showcases the positive impact businesses can have on society. Whether a global financial institution or a small independent firm, everyone has a role to play in making this year's City Giving Day the most impactful yet, generating stories of volunteering, innovation, and community collaboration that highlight the human side of London's business community.
