Dear Editor,
THE NSPCC relies on donations to ensure it can support families and children across the East of England, and this month we are calling on entrepreneurs and small business owners to help us make a difference.
By joining the NSPCC’s Partners in Business initiative, small businesses can choose to support our vital work through donations, one-off events or a year of fundraising. Our experts will help ensure their fundraising events are a success and will offer regular reports on local NSPCC campaigns and events to show the difference their donations can make.
Every £50 raised for the NSPCC could support families for two hours, £500 could fund a Helpline practitioner give 22 hours of support to adults concerned about a child’s wellbeing, while £4,800 could recruit, train and support three new Childline volunteers to speak directly to young people in their darkest hours.
Last year, 50 participants raised enough to fund 2,200 Childline counselling sessions, and we want to do even better this year with the support of local small businesses in the East of England.
We would love to welcome more small businesses and entrepreneurs into Partners in Business in 2025. Full details on how to get involved are available at www.nspcc.org.uk/support-us/partner-with-us/partners-business or you can email me directly on [email protected]
Thanks,
Nathan Shrubb
NSPCC Partners in Business Manager
