Ways to Support Us

At Work

Corporate support for the Children’s Respite Trust.

Corporate support is one of the most effective ways to help the Children’s Respite Trust. By engaging your business and employees in fundraising activities, you can make a significant difference in the lives of children with disabilities and their families. Whether it’s a bake sale, a Charity of the Year campaign, or a creative team-building event, your support matters.

Benefits of Partnering with CRT
  • Engage Employees: Giving back boosts employee morale and encourages teamwork to organise events. Many organisations invite employees to vote for their chosen charity, creating a sense of ownership and enthusiasm.
  • Flexible Involvement: Activities can range from simple initiatives like bake sales to larger events, allowing you to tailor efforts to your team’s interests and capabilities.
  • Positive PR: You can share the difference you’re making with customers and connections demonstrating how your business goes above and beyond.
  • Community Impact: By supporting a local charity, you know that your efforts will directly impact children and families that live in your own community.

Ideas for Corporate Fundraising and Support

There are countless ways your company can get involved, whether through small gestures or large-scale events:

  • Challenges: Staff taking part in marathons, skydives, or other sponsored activities.
  • Collection Tins: Place donation tins in reception or common areas.
  • Organise Your Own Event: Engage with the wider community through an event that aligns with your brand and supports the Trust. Ideas like networking events or dress-down days.
  • Sponsor an Event: Build your own reputation and advertise to the local community while giving back.  We have different events to match every budget.
  • Volunteering: Get a team together and make a hands-on difference helping at our centre with DIY or supporting us as an event volunteer.
  • Matched Giving: Your business might consider matching funds raised by staff up to a set amount, or providing resources to support fundraising activities.

Charity of the Year

If you are looking to make a bigger impact this year, why not choose the Children’s Respite Trust as your charity of the year. This is a fantastic way to focus your resources and make a meaningful impact. This initiative can boost team morale, foster collaboration, and enhance your company’s reputation both internally and externally.
