Corporate Partnership

 Become a Corporate Partner

21 Together is in an exciting phase of growth for the charity, and we are eager to work with like-minded businesses that can support or work in transforming the lives of children and young people with Down’s syndrome.

Corporate support is vital to us, and we have experience working with big businesses to ensure our partnership is a success. Partnership goes both ways, and we enjoy working with our partners to benefit our community, but also your business.

The challenge for all charities in the current climate is huge. Key data from the Charities Aid Foundation shows that:

  • Grant-making has fallen in real terms by 21% since 2023

  • There has been a 34% increase in applicants 2022-2024

  • The average personal donation £20 per year: this has been unchanged in seven years. Had this kept pace even with CPI, the value would now be £26

We are increasingly working with corporate partners who want to use their reach and resources to help us sustain our work.

Current Partnerships include:

  • Employee/Business fundraising events. 

  • Being a nominated Charity of the Year.

  • Sponsorship of Centres, activities or groups. To make your own personalised fundraising page for online donations, click HERE and start fundraising as an individual or as a team.

  • Match funding/payroll giving. This can make a big difference and get your staff engaged and motivated.

  • Customer donations: asking your customers to round up the cost of their transactions.

  • Advocating and awareness raising with clients: linking us with potential individual donors.
