Corporate Fundraising
By supporting The Sick Children's Trust your company is guaranteed to be making a difference to thousands of families' lives across the UK. Working with us can also provide you with a strong partnership that can be mutually beneficial, professional and innovative.
There are many ways your company can support us. We have houses in Cambridge, London, Leeds, Newcastle and Sheffield but we support families from all across the UK and sometimes overseas. So whether you're a local or national business there are many ways we can work together.
Hear from some of our existing partnerships:
Barclays Bank, Legal and Compliance Operations
“We come back from meetings with The Sick Children’s Trust brimming with ideas…it has been terrific to see team relationships grow as a direct result. Colleagues frequently worked with members outside of their immediate teams, enhancing communication and strengthening networks across Barclays. Working directly with the families of seriously ill children and seeing their strength through such a difficult time has been very motivational for team members.” Keith Lippert, Director, Group Legal and Compliance Operations
Lloyds General Insurance
“We are enjoying working with The Sick Children’s Trust as we can see the difference our money and time is making to families in real need. The partnership has also benefited colleagues across many of our offices and brought them closer together as a team. We have undertaken physical challenges such as decorating the houses, whilst raising greatly needed money such as our Welsh countryside walk and have also been able to see the impact we had first hand, by meeting and preparing meals for the families at the charity’s Newcastle and Sheffield houses.” Will Banks, Procurement Manager
Management Cubed (M3) Sheffield
“Most of the employees at M3 are quite young, but more and more of the team have young children and the issue of caring for children is very relevant and something that is close to a lot of our hearts. Even those without children were moved by the idea of this project." James Oliver, Managing Director
