A partnership of a different kind!

Charity of the Year

As a national charity with a regional profile, RCV is looking to double in size in the next three years.  We aren’t doing this to build an empire.  We simply want to reach more people with a physical disability and colour lives.  By becoming RCV’s Charity of the Year, your staff team will be actively contributing to

• a community that values diversity and difference
• the development of projects that work directly with people
• the growth of a charity that aspires to fill a much needed gap in people’s lives
  
  

RCV will support your organisation to develop a fundraising package to suit your needs and will appoint a fundraiser to manage the partnership.  This will include maximising media opportunities and handling as little or as much of your administration in relation to fundraising, which will free up your business.

Corporate donations and Sponsorship

Donations and sponsorship are an opportunity to promote your brand whilst supporting our activities.  When you give to RCV, your business will get tax relief.  Donating is simple and secure using our online form. RCV organises a variety of events throughout the year, so whether your company has a sponsorship budget of £500 or £100,000 we have an event to suit you.  Whatever you choose, we will use it as an opportunity to raise both your profile and ours!

Staff Fundraising

If becoming our Charity of the Year isn’t for you, maybe staff fundraising is.  Fundraising for charity is a great way to build team skills and positions your company as a socially responsible and forward thinking place to work.   RCV has a lot of great ideas for a one-off or succession of events, which range from holding a dress down day to trekking the globe or even a parachute jump!

Payroll Giving

Payroll Giving (Give as You Earn) allows staff to make regular donations to RCV directly from their salary and before tax.  By making consistently regular payments, RCV can make much needed plans for the future which will allow us to reach more people with a physical disability in the UK. 

For businesses, it:

• improves your social responsibility profile
• enhances community involvement
• improves staff recruitment and retention
  
  

Payroll giving is an easy and tax effective way for you and your colleagues to give regularly to charity.  Donations are taken before tax, meaning that for every £1 donated it will only cost 80p (60p for higher rate tax payers) - the taxman pays the rest!

UK charities raise over £100 million yearly through payroll giving and over 10,000 UK employers have committed to payroll giving.

Setting up a payroll giving scheme in your organisation is straightforward and free of charge.  You simply need to sign up with an approved Payroll Giving Agency who will process your employees’ donations and distribute the money to RCV.  Contact us for more information.
