Corporate support and fundraising

Go one step further as an organisation or an individual.

Are you an employee? Might your employer  support this local charity by sending volunteers, fundraising or offering services? Maybe the company you work for is looking for a Charity of the Year to support or has access to a Charitable Trust? Perhaps you run your own business and wish to support a local charity but haven’t much time to invest in doing so? We can help.

If your employer offers “matched-funding” and you want to help boost funds for the Friary then please contact us. There are many ways local businesses can support us without taking up too much time! We have experience in enabling help.

If you as an individual or organisation wish to organise a fundraiser on our behalf, do get in touch with our office and we will support you as best we can. We have benefitted from some great initiatives and know from experience that people are motivated to raise money by doing what they enjoy!
