What you can expect of us as a corporate supporter?

The Campaign is very grateful to any business/organisation that becomes a corporate supporter. If you become a corporate supporter, we will: 

• keep you informed of our work and welcome you and your employees to our events, 
• include your business/organisation’s logo on our webpage and key publications,
• include your business/organisation in relevant publicity (e.g. if you collaborate with us on a project), 
• work with you to support and enable cycling for your employees/customers/other stakeholders, 
• invite you to collaborate with us on projects relevant to your business/organisation,
• listen to your views.

What we ask of our corporate supporters? 

If you become a corporate supporter we hope that you will :

• tell your employees/customers/other stakeholders about YCC’s work and encourage them to join YCC as individual members- the more members YCC has the louder our voice,
• if possible add your business/organisation’s voice to YCC’s when we lobby the Council,
• consider if you could help YCC e.g. by:
  • sharing your expertise (e.g. graphic design, legal advice, copy-writing) on a pro bono basis,
  • offering a discount to Campaign members (this does not have to be cycle-related!),
  • sponsoring a YCC event or publication,
  • donating in kind e.g. raffle prizes, refreshments for events etc.

Are all businesses/organisations welcome?

The Campaign reserves the right to refuse corporate supporter status if the Committee believes that a business/organisation does not support the Campaign’s purpose, goal or role and/or might bring the Campaign into disrepute.
