corporate opportuNities
Our work in Norfolk wouldn’t be possible without the support of our corporate partners. From sponsoring programmes and events to raising vital funds for the Foundation through their own charitable initiatives, there are plenty of ways we can work together.
To find out more about our corporate opportunities please click here.
One such partnership is with Bateman Groundworks, proud sponsors of our Powerchair Football Team. For Bateman, supporting the team goes beyond a corporate responsibility – it’s about making a lasting impact on the lives of individuals who may other not have access to inclusive sports. Being involved with the Foundation has allowed Bateman to give back to the community in a meaningful way, empowering people of all abilities to thrive.
Click here to watch Richard Bateman visit the team at the start of their sponsorship last year.
Another valuable supporter of the Foundation is CIM Signs & Graphics, who have taken an active role in fundraising through a variety of events. From their Golf Day to a corporate 6-a-side football tournament, CIM has shown how corporate partnerships can make a real difference while fostering teamwork and camaraderie.
And finally, WSG Energy Services, who have recently been announced as the new sponsors of our Realising Potential programme – a vital provision enabling children and adults with physical or learning difficulties to get active and develop personal skills. Their sponsorship has ensured that participants continue to grow, build confidence, and achieve their own personal goals.
