Our Partnership Offer
We pride ourselves on offering and creating the most innovative corporate partnerships in Manchester. Led by Simon, our Head of Charity, we’ll listen to your objectives, develop a bespoke programme to meet them, and inspire you with ideas. Progressive, successful companies encourage their people to develop themselves and their teams above and beyond their day-to-day roles. We’re great at helping you to achieve this.

We believe we have more to offer our Partners than most charities. Beyond fundraising, we can also offer you opportunities to work on delivering great services to young people in Manchester. You can be part of their success stories, and make a real difference in Manchester and within your own company. We can also link you into amazing Volunteering opportunities both for the Charity and for the many Community Groups we support across the City.

Doing business in Manchester
Many progressive businesses want to give back to Manchester. We have deep experience in this area, and add value to our Partners’ planning in this field. By offering our Corporate Partners a full spectrum of opportunities across Volunteering, Gift-in-Kind, Delivering Support to Young People and Charity Income Generation, we can help you to give back.
​
The skills and strength of your team can be enhanced while you help us to improve our City. And at the same time, you will strengthen your company’s Social Value and CSR credentials.
​
As The Lord Mayor’s Charity Appeal Fund, we also have the Lord Mayor of Manchester as our figurehead, who is always keen to visit and promote the generous support of our Partners.
At the heart of Manchester
We’re very fortunate to be supported generously by Manchester City Council. As our Partners, they offer us office space and management support as gift-in-kind, saving us overheads which means even more of Manchester's communities and young people benefit directly from the funds we raise.
​
We also work with the Council in partnership, acting as Charity Partner for high profile events like Manchester Day Parade and Heaton Park & Platt Fields Bonfire Night Displays. Not only do these offer us fundraising potential, they also provide our Corporate Partners with fun and exclusive Volunteering opportunities. And our relationship also gives us access to free places at selected mass-participation events in Manchester, which we can make available to our Corporate Partners as part of a comprehensive partnership programme. Talk to us to explore how this can work for your business.
Over to you!
We love our Partners, and also love to give them the credit they deserve. We’ll agree with you a promotion and recognition package that again meets your aims. So let’s do some good work together.
