THE PROBLEMAt least £1.9 billion is hiding in plain sight.
Foreign travel money, old UK currency and jars of loose change often sit forgotten in drawers, cupboards and suitcases.
Individually, the amounts feel small. Collectively, our research suggests at least £1.9 billion in forgotten money is sitting in UK homes.
Much of it is difficult, inconvenient or simply not worth exchanging through traditional routes, so it stays untouched.
Meanwhile, charities are under increasing pressure to find new sources of funding.
Unicorn Foundry connects the two.
Unicorn Foundry unlocks this hidden value by collecting three common forms of unused currency.
Individually these amounts feel insignificant.
But when collected and aggregated at scale, they represent a powerful funding opportunity for charities.

THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNINGUnicorn Foundry begins with forgotten currency…
But homes and workplaces are full of other overlooked resources - old phone chargers, cables, and the valuable materials sitting inside unused electronics.
Over time, the model can expand to unlock value from many other remnants of the modern junk drawer.
As the network grows, so does the impact.
