Corporate Sponsorship

We benefit tremendously from the generosity of our corporate sponsors with donations of time and funding.

Our corporate supporters contribute a huge amount to the day-to-day running of St Luke’s Community Centre. From offering their expertise at our Job Club or PC Pals programmes or through pro bono support, to helping us paint and maintain a tidy Centre, these things all help in the provision of essential services and activities to our community.

We have had long-lasting partnerships with businesses ranging amongst others from architecture, law, marketing, insurance, accountancy and travel. We welcome the opportunity to work with companies across all industries as this diversity is of great benefit to our community.

Priority to get involved in our programmes is given to businesses who partner with us through one of our Corporate Partnerships.

Below you can view a range of ways that businesses can contribute to St Luke’s. Please contact us on businessengagement@slpt.org.uk  or call on 0207 549 8179 to discuss current availability of these opportunities or becoming a Corporate Partner by taking on one of our memberships as part of your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) or Citizenship initiatives.

Our corporate Team Day Challenges are one-off events where our current registered corporate partners can take part in gardening, outdoor maintenance, cooking at our cookery school, and painting and decorating. Due to the cost of organising Team Challenge Days there is a charge per volunteer, which covers the costs of materials and project management.

Please note that currently, we don’t have any team volunteering days to offer as our registered partners have priority and first refusal on team volunteering days and volunteering opportunities.
