We regularly collect case studies from children, families and hospital staff to demonstrate the difference any partnership has made to their lives.
What our partners say
“We first crossed paths with Spread a Smile a few years ago when we donated to the crowdfunding page of Rob Threadgold (Chair of Spread a Smile’s Business Advisory Group); I knew then that this would be a great charity for us to support. We had supported numerous charities in the past but this one felt special; the amazing work the team does to help bring joy and smiles to children and their families whilst in hospital is very heartwarming. It brings me great satisfaction helping the team raise money, to help bring some positivity to the children’s journey.” Lee McDowell, Group CEO & Managing Director, LMAC Group Ltd
“We’re delighted to partner with Spread a Smile following a fun day of volunteering with the team at Christmas. We love what they do and have witnessed the enormous difference it makes to the children, so it’s a pleasure to support them more closely with our fundraising and volunteering efforts.”
Matt Bone, Marketing Director, Hilco Capital
“It has been our privilege to be part of the Spread a Smile story and the incredibly important work that they do. Our partnership has far surpassed our expectations, proving to be rewarding, engaging and a real positive for our business.”
