Workplace Volunteering

Please consider choosing Age UK Croydon as your business Charity of the Year. In return we would offer joint branding on our fundraising materials and our events, as well as positive PR and local media coverage. In 2021, Purley Sunrise chose us as their Charity of the Year, raising much needed money for us, and the profile of both organisations. Read our press release here.

Your staff could get involved in our events thoughout the year, such as our annual Older Persons Day, and Seasonal Ball. By sponsoring an event you help us with the costs, for example, food and decorations, and in return get some great PR and local media coverage.

Could you display a collection tin in your office or shop? This would help us to collect much needed donations to ontinue our vital work in Croydon.

Could you donate a prize for one of our many fundraising raffles and competitions - perhaps a bottle of wine, box of chocolates or biscuits, bath goodies, gift vouchers, or free services?

If you would like to donate a piece of equipment, we would be very grateful. We usually need raiser chairs for people in our day centre, kitchen equipment for our lunch clubs, and computer equipment for our staff.

Could you send a team to help out at an event or activity? It's a great way for staff to bond by working together to help vulnerable older people. Previous staff teams have set tables for our Seasonal Ball, provided tech support, and painted our kitchen.

Your employees could run their own fundraiser to help raise vital funds for our work. They could do a cake sale, dress down day, a sponsored walk or run, or a raffle. There's so many things they could do - contact us for more ideas!
