How your organisation can get involved

Please consider choosing Age UK Richmond 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.

Your staff could get involved in our events thoughout the year, such as our annual Volunteer Thank You event. 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 Richmond upon Thames.

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, for example, computer equipment for our staff and computer workshops, office furniture such as desks for our head office for the many volunteers who support us.

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 served Christmas lunches, taken older people on days out and painted our Social and Wellbeing centres.

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 - download our fundraising kit or contact us for more ideas!
