Do you own a business or work for a company that would like to support us?
We are growing our base of businesses who make a commitment to supporting local Carers through financial or in-kind donations, and by raising awareness of Carers in the workplace and with customers. We can support you in return by offering advice and resources to help you become a Carer Friendly organisation.
We want to build long-term relationships with our sponsors, and to use these connections to help create communities and workplaces where Carers are recognised and valued.
How can you help?
There are lots of ways that you can support the organisation. This might be through:
Financial Contribution
You may choose to support the Centre through one off donations, regular donations or fundraising within your organisation. The amount you donate is up to you, every penny helps.
