Our partners appreciate the opportunity to align their brand with the leading invertebrate conservation organisation in Europe, understanding the importance of the work we do to safeguard the small things that run the planet.

We have many years of experience in developing high-value, high-profile corporate-charity partnerships and we are well placed to tailor a partnership to the specific needs of your organisation.

How we work

There are many motivations for going into a partnership with a charity, so we take a consultative approach to the development of corporate relationships. We will discuss your picture of the ideal partnership, what you want to get from it, and we identify how we can best fulfil those needs.

Whether your motivation is to create a cause related marketing campaign, grow sales, staff or customer engagement, PR, or if seeking to re-enforce your sustainability credentials – Buglife can work with you to address your requirements.

Buglife is registered with the Payroll Giving Agency, Giveall

Giveall is a HMRC approved Payroll Giving platform.

Payroll Giving is a valuable source of income for us and receiving 100% of the donation through Giveall means we don’t lose out on commissions and unnecessary fees. Payroll Giving allows a donor to make a tax-free donation to a charity, therefore there is an upfront benefit to every donor to support us in this way. For example, if you are a 20% tax-payer and set up a donation of £10 to the centre from your monthly salary, it is taken from your gross salary meaning that you only drop by £8 in your net salary but the centre will receive £10.

If you are a business owner or part of an HR team and don’t know much about Payroll Giving but would like to add this to your employee benefits package, fill in an enquiry form and Giveall will be in touch to help you to discuss payroll giving and share ideas on how to promote it to your employees.
