Corporate

On Sunday 30th October 2011, the clocks go back back one hour and what better way to support Royal Blind than by donating that extra hour of daylight to help light up the lives of blind children and adults in the UK 

We work closely with many corporate companies to develop effective relationships that help us deliver services that help and support the blind, visually impaired or multiply disabled, but also give something back to your organisation.

 Together we can develop major partnerships that:

• can inspire staff to fundraise
• can create powerful marketing promotions
• promote payroll giving

 Some potential ways your company can become involved with Royal Blind and Light Relief Week can include:

 Charity of the Year / Week

 Royal Blind will work with you to ensure that we achieve maximum benefit from such a great opportunity. This may include the whole spectrum of fundraising activities, from employee fundraising to sponsorship, but we would be pleased to combine our experience and expertise with yours to ensure that we both have a year or week to remember

 Gifts in kind

 Supporting Royal Blind does not have to involve a direct cost to your company. Very often our corporate supporters help us to save money and thus improve our effectiveness through in kind benefits such as access to their facilities, expertise, buying power or goods.

 Payroll giving

 Payroll Giving is a simple, efficient and flexible scheme, which allows employees to give on a tax-free basis to a charity of their choice. It means that you can support the charity of your choice every month, giving as much as you wish. You can also increase or decrease the amount or stop if you wish to at any time. You can choose to benefit Royal Blind by setting up payroll giving, online fundraising and/or volunteering your time.

 Sponsorship

 There are a variety of sponsorship opportunities for your company that include:

• equipment
• vehicles
• events
• publications
• initiatives

Every sponsorship opportunity allows your company to support our work whilst promoting your brand and achieving your business objectives.
