There are many ways that you can work with
your employers to benefit Epilepsy Research UK.
Companies' charitable donations
Some companies rely on nominations from
their staff to decide who will be the beneficiaries
of their charitable donations. If your company
has a scheme like this, please put our name
forward.
Le
Creuset, the world's leading manufacturer
of enamelled cast iron cookware, adopted
us as their charity of the year in 2006
and organised a series of fundraising events
to support the Samantha
Pennicott Memorial Fund.
Matched giving
Some big companies operate schemes whereby
they match the money that you raise for
charity. If you're doing fundraising for
us, it's worth asking your company if they'll
match what you raise.
Payroll giving
Payroll giving, also known as Give As You
Earn, is an easy tax-efficient way to support
Epilepsy Research UK. You nominate an amount to
donate directly from your pay packet and
we can automatically reclaim the tax on
your donation from the taxman. Click

Earn.
Corporate sponsorship
We rely on corporate sponsorship to help
fund our International
Workshops. Other opportunities include
sponsorship of direct marketing and fundraising
activities. To find out how your company
could work with us, please contact
us.
Employee fundraising
Employee fundraising is a great way to encourage
team spirit in any organisation. It can
help motivate employees and assists in staff
development and team building. If your company
already organises any events, please tell
them about us. If you fancy
organising an event yourself, we'll give
you all the support we can. Click here to
find out what you could do.
Printer cartridge recycling
We can turn used computer printer cartridges
and unwanted mobile phones into hard cash
by recycling them. We can even arrange collection
from your office free of charge. Click
