Become a corporate partner

 

We work closely with companies to develop effective relationships that help us deliver services for 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 include:

 

Charity of the Year

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 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 through Smartchange. Visit Smart Giving for more information.

 

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.

 

A big thank you to all the organisations that have helped us to change lives over the past 200 years.
