Businesses

Willowbrook Hospice welcomes support from businesses in our community!

Business Partners

By working in partnership with us you can show a different side to your business, your community work and corporate responsibility, and in return, we can offer you opportunities for publicity, team building and corporate entertaining.

We would like to take this opportunity to extend our sincerest thanks for you and your teams help and assistance with our care in the community commitments.
Having selected Willowbrook Hospice as our preferred charity we were especially impressed with your assistance in helping to raise our company profile within the local corporate and residential communities. Your suggestions of sponsoring certain events such as the golf day as opposed to just making straightforward donations helped tremendously and in the process we have had a lot of fun.
It was nice to see you all at our own functions and your efforts and support on these occasions where of great help to us. We set ourselves a target of £10,000 over the construction phase of the contract and we are extremely proud to have reached our target and know that the money will be going to such a worthwhile cause backed by a dedicated and knowledgeable workforce and volunteers.

PAVER SMITH HELPS WILLOWBROOK HOSPICE
Dougal Paver of Paver Smith came to visit The BIZZ recently, and gave a really interesting talk about the best way to get results from networking. Not only that but he gave us a generous donation too. Dougal and his team at Paver Smith get involved in a lot of charity events. Thanks Dougal!

ELI LILLY MATCH FUNDS EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTIONS
We received the fantastic sum of £1000 at an award presentation held at Eli Lilly recently. Employees give through the payroll giving system, and Eli Lilly offers match funding. A total of £48000 was given to local charities, and it was a lovely occasion. The charity committee works very hard to motivate the staff, and deserve a pat on the back!
