Corporate Partnerships

Become a Vranch House Corporate Partner.

From supporting events to making us your Charity Partner, there are plenty of ways for you and your company to support us.

We believe that by working together with businesses around the region and beyond we can create stronger communities and make sure young people with physical difficulties and complex needs can thrive within them.

With your vital support, we can continue to provide education, care and therapies for young people with physical difficulties, some who have life-limiting conditions, which will help make a huge difference to their lives.

We want to make sure that a partnership with Vranch House adds real value to your business, engages your staff, fits with your values and helps to meet your goals.

This means that we'll spend time with you to create and build a unique partnership that will engage your staff and also be life-changing to our charity's work with these special children and young adults.

Partnership Case Studies

IKEA Exeter partnership

IKEA

IKEA Exeter have been extremely supportive with Vranch House enabling us to take pupils on trips to the store to work on social skills, independence, life skills, communication and more. Some pupils have even been behind the scenes. Ikea have also supported Vranch House by donating treats and items from the store such as a chair for our hairdresser to use when they visit Vranch House to cut pupils hair once a month.

Ikea collaborated with Vranch House on their new innovative ‘In Store Sensory Sessions’. This initiative was developed to provide inclusive and enriching experiences for children with learning difficulties and significant physical disabilities. Recognising the importance of sensory engagement, IKEA Exeter established a special relationship with Vranch House. As part of our school's enrichment program, pupils spend time at IKEA Exeter, supported by both staff and IKEA co-workers. These sessions included sensory story times with themes such as ‘under the sea,’ and dedicated playtime with iconic IKEA products, adding an element of fun and engagement.

The inclusivity and adaptability of these sessions, made the children from Vranch House feel welcomed, included, and seen. The sessions not only benefit the pupils but also helped the community understand the importance of inclusion.

This initiative has sparked discussions among co-workers in Ikea about disability and accessibility, fostering a more inclusive environment within the store. The success of the sensory sessions has led to this being a monthly event that different cohorts of pupils get to access with different goals and aims. There are now plans to expand similar initiatives to other IKEA units. This initiative exemplifies IKEA's innovative approach to improving the lives of disabled people and fostering a more inclusive society.

Well done and Thank you IKEA!

Dunelm are always very accommodating when we take pupils on trips to the store and cafe to work on social skills, independence, life skills, communication and more.
