Corporate support

Why choose us?

By supporting East Kent Hospitals Charity, your business will be making a real and direct difference to your communities and local customers. East Kent Hospitals University Foundation Trust is one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with five hospitals and community clinics serving a local population of around 700,000 people. We raise and receive funds so that we can enhance the hospital environment and experience for patients, staff and visitors.

How we can support you

We work closely with businesses to create a partnership that's unique to them and works best for their employees, clients and customers. We recognise and celebrate our corporate partnerships across our social media networking sites and within our press releases. You will receive access to a range of content and resources to help you support us and we have a dedicated fundraising team who are happy to offer advice and guide you through your fundraising journey with us.

Ways you can support us

Companies in the past have supported us in many ways and you can choose whatever way works best for you. Some select us as their charity of the year, while others will organise a one-off fundraiser. From sponsored team away days, to organising a charity ball or quiz night, there are lots of different ways you can get involved, whether big or small.

We have fundraising ideas, campaigns and events to suit everyone and will take the time to get to know your staff and what they enjoy. Take a look at our fundraising page or our events page for inspiration.

What our partners say

We regularly have lovely feedback, and Matt Gurr, Managing Director at Bauvill, has encouraged other businesses to join them in supporting us: “We have partnered with East Kent Hospitals University Foundation Trust for a long time now, working alongside clinical teams as we deliver key infrastructure projects where we have witnessed first-hand the selfless care they provide to patients.

Being able to support such a fantastic local charity is a real privilege. It doesn’t take much for us to help, but we like to think our contributions have a positive impact on patients, their families, and even staff members. We encourage others to get involved as it really does make a difference.”
