Choosing to support St Ann’s as a business benefits both us and you, and can be a really rewarding partnership with lots of opportunities for team building, boosting morale and having some fun!

Here are some ideas for ways you can get involved:

Make St Ann’s your charity of the year

We can support you by putting together a plan for your fundraising and volunteering for the year so it is mutually beneficial for both us and you.

In addition to this, your businesses PR team will love this! Local newspapers are generally very interested in promoting fundraising stories, and a local company working with a local charity makes an even stronger likelihood of a resulting story!

Compete in our Accumulator Challenge

Do you fancy competing in an Apprentice-style scheme where you can turn £100 into thousands? We’re challenging local businesses to grow £100 into as much money as you can throughout October to see if you can be crowned The Ultimate Accumulator or win the prize of The Ultimate Innovator with the most innovative idea.

Compete against other local businesses or create several teams within your own organisation! Click here to find out more!

This year Swizzels and On the 7th are sponsoring our Accumulator Challenge.

Help promote our events & campaigns

By promoting our events and campaigns, you’ll be helping to bring more funds St Ann’s so we can continue our care.

For example, Swizzels recently promoted our biggest fundraising event of the year, the Manchester Midnight Walk, by including the event branding on their Loveheart sweets. Not only did this help sign-ups for the event but this helped Swizzels brand awareness and advertises the personalised service that they offer on their sweets!

Sponsor our events

We have a number of high profile events which attract large numbers of supporters. Whatever your budget, we can offer sponsorship packages which will help raise your profile in the local area.

This will help strengthening your brand image, in addition to improving company or product awareness and visibility.

Take part in an event or host you own event

Take part in a sporting event together, host a cake sale, or have a fancy dress day in the office… The possibilities are endless, and we’d love to hear your ideas.

Give your time and volunteer

Donating your time can be as valuable to a charity as donating money. Taking part in one of our volunteering days allows you to use your skills and gain new experiences outside your usual workplace.

You can also undertake tasks that need to be done which can raise money towards patient care and/or save us money on our costs. Find out more about how your organisation can get involved here.

There’s no limit to the ways in which we can work together with businesses, and the mutual benefits!

We’d love to hear your ideas on ways that you want to get involved! Just simply get in touch with our corporate fundraising team on 0161 498 3631 or email corporate@sah.org.uk.
