Bring your team together through fundraising

Fundraising at work is a brilliant way to mix up the working week alongside creating a fun, positive and creative work environment. It can also boost your teams mental health and develop relationships between team members, all whilst raising vital funds for local children and their families.

Ways to get involved 

When we say there is something for everyone, we really do mean it. Whether you can host an office bake sale, sponsor one of our events, choose us as your next charity partner or take part in an Acorns event – everything makes a difference.

Be part of Team Acorns!

Are you up for a challenge? From marathons to bike rides, abseils to skydives, there’s a whole host of exhilarating events you can take part in to raise much needed funds for Acorns. Why not head over to our events page to sign up today.

Create some in-office fundraising activities!

From bake sales, to dress down (or up!) days, raffles, prize draws, sweepstakes, Easter egg hunts or even mileage challenges, this is your chance to get creative and have fun!

Alongside your brilliant ideas, we can support you with providing fundraising materials like balloons, t-shirts, tablecloths, pop-up banners and collection tins.

Payroll Giving

Did you know you can make regular donations to Acorns Children’s Hospice directly from your salary?  It’s a hassle-free way of supporting local life limited children and their families throughout the year.  It’s also tax-free – the donation is made after National Insurance, but before tax. This way, instead of the tax being sent to the government, it’s sent to Acorns.

If your employer doesn’t have a payroll giving scheme then information about payroll giving can be found on the Charities Aid Foundation website (CAF Give As You Earn), or contact the Partnerships Team on partnerships@acorns.org.uk or call 01564 825037.

Sponsorship

Sponsorship is a brilliant way of demonstrating your commitment to supporting a local cause, alongside promoting your business. We would be happy to open a conversation with you to find a suitable sponsorship opportunity to suit you and your business.

Gifts in kind

Could your business support us through donation of goods such as raffle or auction prizes or maybe something larger? We are always open to discussing gift in kind support to establish where we might benefit from a gift from your company. Please get in touch with us if you had a particular gift in mind!
