CTT aims to work in partnership with the third sector to support and guide charities and not-for-profit organisations in the UK to use technology to enhance the way they work and collaborate.

Since 2001, we have bridged the gap between the third sector and technology partners to help organisations improve their effectiveness. We support third sector organisations through a range of finance, communications and campaigning services, including:

• CTTMail, our managed email marketing service which distributes nearly two million email per month on behalf of charities and not-for-profits
• CTPayments, which provides a range of solutions that can specifically address the finance and fundraising needs of your organisation.
• CTXchange, our technology donation programme, which has enabled thousands of charities to work far more effectively using donated technology
