Company giving and corporate partnerships

Working with us will give you and your business the opportunity to make a real difference in the health and social care sector and bring your staff and customers together to help people who really need your support. We do not take any administration fees from donations so more income is spent on direct, frontline support for the people who use our services. Every penny you raise will go the people who need it most.

Why should your company work with Making Space?

• Teambuilding opportunities: We can provide a fun programme of fundraising activities that will help build team bonds and boost morale with positive effects on staff output and staff retention.
• Greater ability to attract talent and retain staff: Employees are increasingly looking for work that provides them with a sense of purpose and fulfilment.
• Brand enhancement/PR: Your company will be recognised as being socially responsible and genuinely caring.
• Improved customer reputation: Many customers don’t just prefer to deal with responsible companies, they insist on it.
• Drive change/ make a real difference: A partnership with Making Space could help to drive change in the sector and make a real difference to society.
• Support your local community: We can ring-fence money raised for local services or causes that you wish to support.
• Volunteering opportunities: The chance for staff to provide meaningful support to us through their expertise or skills.
• New or improved prospects: To access investment, attract positive media attention and find new business opportunities.

How can we work together?

We believe the best partnerships are tailored to suit both party’s needs. So, we are happy to work with you and find ways for us to work together to make a genuine difference to the people we support and also, to your business and your staff.

Current ways a business could support us are:

• Provide access to your staff: We can work with your staff to run fundraising events that are engaging and fun for all.
• Event/Campaign sponsorship: We hold a number of special events each year aimed at celebrating all our people, the people who use our services, our colleagues and volunteers.

• Sponsor an activity or service: Your business could support a local Making Space activity such as a coffee morning for unpaid carers, a dementia café for people living with dementia and their carers, and many other important activities that take place every week in our  services. 
• Apprenticeship Levy: If your business has an annual pay bill of over £3 million then please consider donating your excess apprenticeship levy fund to support our apprentices.
• Gifts in Kind: We appreciate prizes, tickets, equipment, skills or raffle prizes, etc. that can be used to support our fundraising efforts or help the people we support directly.
