Could You Be Our Next Charity of the Year?
We love to give a little bit back to our local community, which is why every year we adopt a charity or not-for-profit organisation that needs a little help raising its profile and creating awareness.
Our chosen charity gets a year’s free PR and marketing support from us, and we also try to raise a bit of cash through fundraising events such as our famous annual Chippy Quiz!
We’re on the lookout for our Charity of the Year for 2025, so if you work in a deserving charity or know of an organisation that could use our support, now’s the time to get in touch!
Since 2009 we’ve supported a range of different charities, from brain injury and baby loss to cancer research and loneliness. Over the years we’ve become firm friends with a host of wonderful charities, and we’ve achieved some amazing results, including a feature in New York Times magazine which led to a donation from 007 star Daniel Craig!
“We love supporting smaller charities which don’t necessarily have the resources to do justice to their marketing and communications,” said Kate Strawson, a Director of Shooting Star.
“However, it is a collaborative effort, and we do need our chosen charity to commit the time to make sure they get the most out of working with us.”
Here’s what some of our past charities have to say about working with us:
“Shooting Star’s generous support meant the world to us, and we were truly honoured to have the opportunity to collaborate with the talented and dedicated team.”
Kerry Gooderham, BRIC (Building Resilience in Communities)
“We cannot thank the Shooting Star team enough for their support.”
Ann-Marie Smith, Headway Lincolnshire
“A huge thank you to everyone at Shooting Star for being incredible with HUG. There is no way we’d have managed it alone through the most testing times all round. What a fantastic team!”
Amy Everatt, Help Us Grieve
“We have felt so privileged to have been Shooting Star’s Charity of the Year. Their flexibility, support and limitless energy have been priceless to the work of our charity.”
Vicky Thomson, Every-One
This year we’ve been supporting The Network Lincoln, a charity that offers free careers advice and support to the young people of Lincoln and Sleaford through individual sessions, projects and events. The team have helped to change the lives of many young people across Lincolnshire since 2016.
