ExcludedUK logo
ExcludedUK was established in May 2020 to represent the 3.8 million UK taxpayers excluded from parity of government financial support during the Covid-19 pandemic. 

We dutifully paid in, but were deliberately left out!

Lives and Livelihoods lost!

37+ lives lost but our mental health team have saved hundreds of lives! Please donate to save more. Thank you

 What we want:

(1) An apology from government so this injustice is recognised and assurance that this will never happen again

(2) Parity of support 

(3) Acknowledgement of loss of earnings/profit and consequential loss.

What We Do

Lobbying & Campaigning

We lobby for fairness and equality, raising awareness and communicating our core messaging to parliamentary bodies and MPs, partners, influencers, press and media and wider society.

We seek to further our communications directly with the Treasury, in tandem with developing the conversations we have with our collaborators who are closer to the heart of the Government.

Research & Policy

We undertake research and produce reports to help inform and shape debate on excluded issues.

We seek to be the go-to place for relevant information for politicians, press and media, advisers to the Government and potential partners and supporters.

Fundraising & Support

We seek to empower and inspire affected individuals to help build knowledge and resilience.

We provide community support, from well-being and welfare to business guidance and support.

 

Our Vision

Fairness, justice and inclusion lie at the heart of our ethos, and we will continue to work towards systemic change and will fight against inequality.

 

 

Our Mission

We aim to facilitate community support while equally raising awareness of the injustice faced by those excluded from meaningful support through multiple channels and a variety of activities. Most importantly, our hope is that our efforts can help propel affected individuals and businesses forward in the face of adversity

 

OUR CORE VALUES

EQUALITY & INCLUSION

We promote an inclusive and diverse community and campaign for fair and equal treatment, regardless of how, why and when an individual has been excluded. We realise there are many who may have not found their way to us yet, but they are still very much part of our long-term plan, together with the existing ExcludedUK community.

OPENNESS & TRANSPARENCY

We will publish regular campaign updates to the ExcludedUK community so you can stay abreast of developments and our work behind the scenes.

SUPPORT & EMPOWERMENT

We recognise that parity will not occur overnight and in the meantime are here to provide mental health and business support to the ExcludedUK community until they are able to get back on their feet.

We encourage individuals to use their talents to not only support the campaign but to thrive outside the community.

We aim to provide tools to help propel affected individuals and businesses forward in the face of adversity.

 

COLLABORATION

We appreciate we can only achieve our vision if we are working with like-minded individuals and organisations.

Our collective voice can only be stronger if we work together.

RESPECT

We ensure that everyone, whether a member of the ExcludedUK community, a supporter, or a political figure, is shown the utmost respect.

We respect every individual’s right to their own views.

We do not tolerate personal attacks of any nature.

Helping our ExcludedUK Community across the UK

 

 

 

 

We have members across the whole of the UK and we aim to support them in every way we can. We run lots of events from advice on how to make the most of their business, to how to access grants.
