Third Sector’s Business Charity Awards recognise the outstanding contribution made by UK businesses to good causes. The awards not only recognise the role that individuals, teams and entire companies play in supporting charitable activity both at home and abroad, but also help to educate the wider business community about the best ways to support good causes. The awards are open to companies of all sizes and across all industries. Charities may enter on behalf of their corporate partners. Joint entries from companies and their corporate foundations will also be accepted for their work with charity partners.

They have over 20 categories to enter:

Innovation

  1. CHALLENGE EVENT OF THE YEAR
  2. EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT INITIATIVE OF THE YEAR
  3. MARKETING PARTNERSHIP OF THE YEAR
  4. PROJECT OF THE YEAR
  5. BEST DIGITAL INNOVATION

Charity Partnerships

These categories recognise the charitable contributions UK companies make to good causes through fundraising, volunteering or by providing pro-bono support. Please address the following questions within your 1,000 word written submission for the partnership categories.

  • What was the partnership, its objectives and the social change that it wanted to achieve?
  • How was it delivered? What specific measures have been adopted? What resources (people, investment and skills) did the company contribute? Include any challenges that were faced and how they were overcome.
  • How have you measured the impact of the partnership?
    • For example, have you asked your charity partner to provide regular information that shows the social change achieved, and do you use a particular framework to monitor its impact?
  • What has been achieved? What benefits has the partnership brought to society, the charity and the company?
