Getting it right with Sponsorship

Creating great results for Dragons Abreast, Hogs Breath Cafe and other sponsors.

It's often said that business should support the community, and community groups should be more self-reliant in fund raising. The benefits for both parties are obvious, and we're proud to show you how it can be done so both parties benefit.


  
As a part of our annual support for Breast Cancer Awareness in October, we are:

  • Supporting the activities of Dragons Abreast
  • Publicising the activities of businesses who are sponsoring the group
  • Showing you how to get the best for your business by taking a planned, strategic approach to community support.
