Partner with us
The creative and media industry is at the heart of everything we do. By utilising the skills, passion, vision and financial support of our corporate partners, we can achieve our mission to amplify the voices of charities, communities and young people in the UK. Together we are supporting, connecting, training and mentoring thousands of incredible organisations and inspiring individuals every year. In doing so, we help them champion their cause, tell their stories and enhance the impact they’re having on the issues facing society today. Read on to find out how you can get involved.
Charities, like all organisations, need skills, knowledge and creativity in order to communicate effectively with beneficiaries, funders and the public. However, many charities struggle with communications.
Research continues to highlight that around half of all small charities have a major skills gap in key areas of digital, social media and communications strategy.
This is where Media Trust comes in. We help charities focus on strategic and effective communications with their increasingly limited resources. But we can’t do this alone.
Help us achieve our mission
We enjoy outstanding support from the creative & media industry. Our industry partners comprise some of the leading brands in the creative and media industry and provide invaluable pro-bono volunteers, in-kind resources, and other support. Their passion, creativity and skills help us make a huge difference to so many lives across the UK.
Volunteers from more than 20 of our industry partners came together at our 2017 Women's Voices event to create campaigns and strategies aimed at giving women and girls a voice.

Employee supported volunteering opportunities
Volunteers can provide assistance to charities in many different ways. They may wish to work with a charity on a one-to-one or group basis. Depending on their knowledge and experience, they may choose to deliver training at one of our masterclasses or mentor one of our charities. If time is a concern, they can participate in our half or one-day volunteer matching or charity challenge events. If supporting disadvantaged young people into the media industry is important you you, we also offer staff the opportunity to engage in our youth programmes. Staff can sign up to mentor a young person to help them better understand the media industry and expand their horizons.
As a corporate partner, your employees can network with like-minded media professionals at one of our many sporting or fundraising events.
There are also plenty of opportunities to demonstrate your support for our work by sponsoring one of our exclusive media industry events, such as our Media Industry World Cup or Really Big Quiz.
