Donations can be directed to a specific study which resonates with you, your staff or customers. We are also always grateful for gifts in kind, including products and services. We show our appreciation by recognising your support on social media, awarding certificates, inviting you to our corporate receptions and publicising.

Sponsorship

Build positive brand awareness and engage with new audiences. We aim to create win-win partnerships with sponsors, enabling Action to optimise fundraising potential whilst profiling brands to your targeted audience through face-to-face activity, product sampling, branding, and featuring on our website and in our communications. Packages can be tailored depending on your level of investment and priorities.

Staff fundraising

Working with companies, large and small

Encourage staff to get together and have some fun achieving some agreed fundraising goals. We are always here to support you - offering new ideas, advice, fundraising materials and plenty of other resources to help you succeed.

Events: individual, team & bespoke

Something for all your staff

As well as offering high quality mass participation events across the UK for the past 20 years - treks, walks, bike rides - Action is experienced in working with organisations to design and deliver bespoke events tailored to their specific needs. We offer route planning, health and safety and logistics. we can also support you to incorporate fundraising into your own events.

Social Events

Range of sponsorship opportunities

Throughout the year we organise a number of fantastic lunches, dinners and other social events that we encourage our Partners to attend. They are a great excuse to get together and also offer sponsorship opportunities.

Cause Related Marketing (CRM)

By associating your brand with a good cause you can ensure that you stand out from the crowd, as demonstrated with our partnership with Smeg UK which tied in with the launch of the first Paddington movie. Smeg donated £20 from every FAB 28 fridge sold in a two month period and raised over £7,500 and generated some fantastic coverage for both Action and Smeg UK.

Action Medical Research was already Smeg UK’s chosen charity and as Action is Paddington Bear’s favourite charity and the fridge appeared in the new film, it seemed fitting that we joined up all of these activities to help raise more funds for this important cause."
