How to get involved

one size does not fit all

There are lots of ways to partner with us. Our dedicated account managers have lots of experience working with all types and sizes of organisations, building partnerships that meet your needs and our charitable mission. Some of our most popular are listed below - but we find the best way to find out what's best for you is to talk. So why not get in touch?

How you can get involved
Charity of the year

#VoteOB as your charity of the year and bring your employees together, knowing that they are making a difference to young people locally and nationally. Partnering with Outward Bound:

  • Aligns with your organisational CSR strategies and wider business needs
  • Demonstrates your company’s commitment to being at the heart of your communities
  • Engages employees through inspiring fundraising activities
  • Provides unique personal development opportunities (check out our Employee Ambassador programme)
  • Rewards employees with access to challenge events or a thank you reception at a royal household.
Brand campaigns and cause marketing

Cause marketing is high on the agenda of consumers today.

Showing your commitment to a cause makes a big difference to your customers. Research shows that when quality and price is equivalent, social purpose is the number one deciding factor for shoppers globally. People want to buy from brands that share their values and that give back to society.

Cause marketing is a win, win, win.

  • For you - it strengthens your brand, marketing campaign or product sales
  • For us - it boosts our profile and brings in much needed funds
  • For your customers - it shows them that you share their values and care about society.

Sound good? Could you donate a percentage of the revenue from a particular product line or from your customer transactions? Why not talk it through with us?

Strategic partnerships

Your organisation isn't the same as any other and neither are our partnerships.

Outward Bound has a collaborative approach to building unique and innovative programmes that meet the needs of your organisation and our charitable mission. We're able to custom design projects that support the vision of your business, your people strategy and your corporate responsibility aims.

Easy words to write, but we can back them up with the benefits for our partners and more importantly the young people that needed help.

Events and employee fundraising

We would love for your employees to help raise vital funds by doing something amazing.

Our events team can help with that ‘amazing event’ that fits your business. Or better still has the Outward Bound edge to it!

That might start with a bake off of our original flapjack recipe - and end up with an abseil down your office. We're the team that abseiled The Shard so the sky is quite literally the limit!

Take a look at our current fundraising events or contact us to discuss ideas.

Invest in your own talent

The great work doesn’t just have to happen in the community. If you employ apprentices, graduates or future leaders, we can work with your learning and development teams to develop your early careers talent.

If your organisation pays into the apprenticeship levy, then you'll be pleased to know that Outward Bound are listed on the Register of Apprenticeship Training Providers (RoATP).

Partnership benefits

Alongside supporting our fantastic work, you will also get:

  1. A dedicated account manager – to ensure your programme achieves for you and us.
  2. Access to our incredible events programme – creating unrivaled opportunities for adventure throughout the year!
  3. Invited to our unique thank you events – many hosted at a royal household by our Patrons and Trustee.
  4. Introduced to our community of like minded organisations and loyal supporters.

Be warned! We find that once the spark is lit, Outward Bound can have a tendency of catching hold of the corporate heart and grabbing your imagination for the boundless possibilities still to explore.
