Welcome to GOAL

GOAL is indebted to the UK public whose constant generosity and compassion has made it possible for us to respond to nearly every major natural and man-made disaster, and operate development programmes in 50 countries since our inception. Today GOAL UK spends millions every year (over £45 million in 2007) implementing relief, rehabilitation and development programmes to help the most vulnerable in 12 developing countries. GOAL UK is proud of the fact that we have kept our administration costs exceptionally low over the 31 year period.

Low Administration Costs

GOAL is proud that, since its inception in 1977, the organisation’s administration costs have been exceptionally low. One of the ways we have achieved this efficiency, is through the secondment of staff from the corporate sector.

GOAL’s current 2007/2008 Head Office secondees are Margaret Williams, AIB, Keith Adams, AIB, and Anna Bourke, United Drug.

GOAL is indebted to these companies for their continued support.
