Small Businesses

Whether you are a shop, an office, a ‘one man’ business or have a number of small businesses we would love to become more involved with you.

Are you able to have a collection box on your premises? Does your company do their bit and help the local environment through recycling? Why not help us and do your bit for the environment by letting us recycle your inkjet toner and cartridges or mobile phones. Another way you could help would be to place a box of our pin badges on your business premises for employees, customers or clients to purchase.

Many small businesses already help us in this way but we always welcome and need more.

Your company can make a real difference to Bobath Children’s Therapy Centre Wales through sponsorship of a range of high profile corporate events and initiatives. In return for your support, you will receive commercial benefits including brand promotion to some of the major businesses in Wales.

Our events offer sponsors excellent brand promotion, networking opportunities and PR. These include a question of women, Bake for Bobath, the Lon Las Cycle Challenge and our Corporate Breakfast during Cerebral Palsy Awareness Week. Our premier event of the year is our Birthday Ball which takes place every June, attracting many of our corporate supporters.

All these events have numerous sponsorship opportunities available.

Sponsor a Therapist

Funding a therapist at Bobath Children’s Therapy Centre Wales means that we can provide more Bobath therapy to more children providing a truly tangible way to support us.

Sponsor a Child

Your company could sponsor a child, although we are unable to give you details of a specific child as we have to respect every child’s confidentiality. We will however update you about a specific child and show you the difference that coming to Bobath Children’s Therapy Centre Wales has made to them and their family.

Cause Related Marketing

Whether you are launching a new product or marketing your existing range, a Cause Related Marketing initiative with Bobath Children’s Therapy Centre Wales will have a positive impact on sales and your ‘bottom line’.

For example Tan Y Castell Welsh Cakes sponsor our Bake for Bobath event by including a Bake for Bobath sticker on their packs during February and March.

This is excellent marketing for them as well as showing their customers their corporate social responsibility credentials.

Gifts in Kind

We are always extremely grateful for offers of Gifts in Kind and some companies provide us with wonderful gifts that we can auction or raffle at the many events we hold during the year.

We also keep a wish list of equipment needed for therapy and many companies find this an ideal way to support our work.

GE Healthcare, one of our corporate supporters pays for a gardener to help maintain the gardens enabling families who visit the centre to have attractive surroundings to eat or relax in.

Bobath Children’s Therapy Centre Wales would like to thank all the companies that support us for their continued help towards our valuable work.
