How companies can help ChildLine

Corporate fundraising

ChildLine has partnerships with some of the UK's largest companies - and some of the smallest. We're proud of our experience, success and professionalism, and will work closely with your company and staff to meet your objectives. We understand that when ChildLine benefits, so should our partners. Check out some of our partners below.

There are a number of ways that your company can get involved with us.

Cause-related marketing
Choosing ChildLine as your charity partner is a powerful way to communicate your values to key customers - and to differentiate your products from the competition in a practical and visible way.

In today's markets, winning goodwill and recognition can be crucial. Research by Business in the Community shows that 81 per cent of consumers are more likely to buy a product that is associated with a cause they care about. That's a difference that can drive sales and attract new customers. To see how your company can help support us, please email corporatepartnerships@nspcc.org.uk.

Corporate sponsorship
Corporate sponsorship with ChildLine enables your company to promote a positive image to people that matter. It's an opportunity for corporate hospitality and a way to attract very positive media attention.

ChildLine offers many different opportunities for sponsorship. You can choose to sponsor any aspect of ChildLine's work: from counsellors to entire counselling centres, conferences to research reports. Or you can sponsor an event such as ChildLine’s Annual Ball or the ChildLine Polo Challenge.

By sponsoring ChildLine events or initiatives, you can promote a positive image, entertain clients and reinforce your company's position as a good corporate citizen. Find out more by emailing corporatepartnerships@nspcc.org.uk.

Staff fundraising
Staff fundraising creates a sense of common goals and shared pride, which is great for morale and team spirit. It can also generate goodwill with your customers, suppliers and the local community.

ChildLine has the expertise to maximise the benefits of staff fundraising for your organisation. We can work with you to develop a tailored fundraising pack or to start up a payroll-giving scheme. We have a wealth of innovative fundraising ideas including simple, but tried and tested off-the-peg fundraising packages, which provide an easy and cost-effective method of supporting ChildLine.

Crucially for staff fundraising, ChildLine's ten UK-wide telephone counselling centres mean your company's fundraising can actively support local children. And if you make a donation, it will benefit from Corporate Gift Aid and can be written off against profits for tax purposes. For more information, please email corporatepartnerships@nspcc.org.uk.

Make a corporate donation
ChildLine welcomes donations from companies, which can be made in support of a number of areas of our work with children and young people. What’s more, through Gift Aid, you can make your gift go further at no extra cost to your company.

Under the Gift Aid scheme, your company can receive tax relief on a donation made to ChildLine by deducting the amount of the donation from profits prior to calculating corporation tax at the end of the financial year. This means that your company can make a gross payment to ChildLine, enabling us to benefit fully from the donation.

There is no need to fill in a declaration, and unlike Gift Aid donations from individuals, ChildLine is not entitled to reclaim tax itself. For further details, contact your company’s tax office or the Inland Revenue. To make a donation  or to find out more about supporting ChildLine, please email corporatepartnerships@nspcc.org.uk.
