Befriend a Child is inviting local businesses to get involved in its Big Top Boozy Brunch, offering an opportunity to raise their brand profile while supporting children and young people across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
Befriend a Child is calling on local businesses to become silver or bronze sponsors of its Big Top Boozy Brunch, returning to Marcliffe on Friday 19th and Saturday 20th March 2027.
As the charity’s biggest fundraising event of the year, the Big Top Boozy Brunch brings together over 450 guests for an unforgettable day of entertainment, food and fundraising, all in support of local children and young people growing up in difficult life circumstances.
With a circus-inspired theme for 2027, guests can look forward to an electric atmosphere, a delicious two-course brunch, spectacular surroundings and feel-good entertainment. Bringing together incredible energy, unforgettable moments and plenty of opportunities to celebrate, it promises to be a truly memorable experience for friends, colleagues and clients.
For businesses, sponsorship offers a valuable opportunity to put their organisation and brand in front of a large local audience, build connections with potential customers and demonstrate a commitment to supporting their community. Last year's event welcomed over 450 guests across the weekend, with Befriend a Child's social media content featuring the event and its sponsors generating more than 25,000 views during the month of the event alone. Alongside this, sponsors benefited from additional exposure through influencer content, supplier posts and promotional activity before, during and after the event, extending their brand visibility well beyond the day itself.
Befriend a Child supports children and young people across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire through one-to-one befriending and mentoring, group activities and youth clubs. These services provide opportunities to build friendships, develop confidence, experience new activities and form positive relationships with trusted adults away from the difficult circumstances they face. The charity also delivers family support, helping parents and carers access practical assistance and additional services when they need them.
Demand for the charity's services remains high, making fundraising and corporate partnerships increasingly important in helping ensure children and young people can access the support and positive experiences they deserve.
Morgan Dunn, Senior Marketing and Communications Co-ordinator at Befriend a Child, said:
“The Big Top Boozy Brunch is our biggest fundraising event of the year, and it is fantastic to see so many local people and businesses come together to make a difference to the lives of children and young people across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
Whether you are looking to strengthen existing relationships, connect with new audiences or support a cause that makes a real difference locally, the event offers a fantastic opportunity to do all three and we would love to hear from businesses interested in being part of the 2027 event.”
Businesses interested in becoming a silver or bronze sponsor are encouraged to contact Morgan Dunn at m.dunn@befriendachild.org.uk to discuss the available opportunities and find out more about supporting the event.
