“We are immensely proud of our longstanding partnership with the NSPCC and the remarkable impact we have achieved together.

Since 2017, with the support of our customers and colleagues, we have raised over £10 million, helping the NSPCC reach millions of children through its Speak Out Stay Safe programme and Childline service. As we enter the next phase of our partnership, we look forward to continuing our work alongside the NSPCC, supporting its vital programmes for children and young people, with a particular focus on mental health support for young people.”

Ways to partner with us

There are lots of different ways you can partner with us to fit your companies unique needs. Expand the partner spotlights to see how some of our partners work with us.

Employee Engagement

We’ll provide bespoke fundraising and volunteering opportunities for you, whether it's as charity of the year or a longer-term partnership.

Since 2017, Lidl GB has been an invaluable partner of ours, with the support of their customers and colleagues raising an incredible £10 million. We are excited to announce the extension of our partnership for another five years, with a new target of raising an additional £5 million.

Some key achievements have been:

  • Lidl GB funded the Speak Out Stay Safe service by raising £3 million between 2017 and 2020. This funding transformed the service into a national campaign, helping us teach over one million children about the signs of abuse and where to go if they need help.
  • Lidl GB raised £2 million for Childline to help recruit, train, and support volunteers between 2020 and 2022. This enabled us to respond to over 400,000 contacts from young people.
  • Recognising the pandemic's impact, Lidl GB raised a further £5 million for Childline, focusing on mental health support. This funding helped us to deliver over 70,000 counselling sessions for young people. Lidl GB also funded campaigns to help young people identify feelings of loneliness and direct them to the new Childline mental health webpages.

This is just a snapshot of the incredible work Lidl GB have done in collaboration with us so far. Amongst other initiatives, they tirelessly raise awareness of our work through sponsoring key moments and promoting our services at their events. Lidl GB have helped us to build a brighter future for children. We are excited to see what the future of our partnership together brings and the ongoing support for young people across the UK.

Pro Bono

Support us meaningfully in our work with children and young people by donating your time, skills and expertise. This partnership style is a great way for you to make a real impact on our life-changing work with children and young people.

OC&C Strategy Consultants LLP have been supporting the NSPCC since 2020, providing pro bono consultancy on key strategic challenges.

Just one example of the fantastic consultancy provided involved advising on the NSPCC’s secondary school offer to support young people. Through interviews with key NSPCC stakeholders, education professionals and other charities, OC&C suggested how the NSPCC could provide an offer focusing on healthy sexual behavior and relationships. Following this, the NSPCC developed Talk Relationships, our secondary education service to help young people understand healthy and harmful relationships, recognising their right to be safe, heard and respected, and knowing how to get help from a trusted adult if they need it.

Commercial

We'll work together to raise funds through product sales, while boosting each other’s profiles and changing children’s lives.

Lindt & Sprüngli UK have been supporting the NSPCC’s Childline service since 2017, through the promotion of their Lindt TEDDY Milk (100g), available to purchase in Lindt retail outlets, major retailers such as Tesco, and on Lindt's website during the Christmas period.

This heart-warming campaign has to date raised approximately £1m, which helps to support children and young people to access Childline – so that no child goes unheard.

As well as this fantastic campaign, Lindt & Sprüngli UK staff have donated beautiful hampers to our Childline volunteers working at Christmas and have taken part in fantastic fundraising activities such as our annual Childhood Day and Three Peaks Challenge over the years of our long-standing partnership.

Strategic

Join forces with us to achieve mutually beneficial goals that help transform society. Working together to make a difference to children and young people.

The NSPCC has been in a strategic partnership with Vodafone UK since March 2023 with a commitment to ensure every child has a happy and safe online life. We achieve this through:

  • empowering parents
  • giving young people a voice
  • raising awareness of online harms to educate the public.

Together, we provide parents and carers with support and guidance to help them, and their children navigate the online world, aiming for a positive family experience. One example is the TRUST toolkit, which helps families:

  • Start the journey of getting their child their first phone
  • Make safe choices
  • Use their devices safely.

We have collaborated with Vodafone on their Digital Parenting Hub, a comprehensive information center for parents and carers. The resource featuring tips from NSPCC experts, received 65,000 views in the first two months.

Another example is our 2024 children's creative writing competition with First News, encouraging children to share positive online experiences and solutions for happier, healthier online lives. This competition also raised awareness of the TRUST toolkit and highlighted children's ideas in online safety solutions.

Their support has enabled the opening of a purpose-built center in Liverpool for children who have experienced neglect and abuse, trained practitioners to help vulnerable children across Merseyside, and answered over a million calls to Childline. Additionally, Matalan collaborates with the NSPCC to create unique product ranges, such as the exclusive Bing range in 2024, and will launch a new children’s clothing range for Childhood Day in June.
