Age UK Norfolk Launches Holiday Campaign

This Winter, Age UK Norfolk’s resident mischievous Elf, Peppermint, will make his way around Norfolk businesses for the Holiday season to spread the word about our work.

He’s a tricky little Elf though and has been known to cause a little mayhem. After some stern words with our CEO, Peppermint has promised to behave…in exchange for a sElfie photo and a donation to support our work this Winter.

Could your business make a festive donation and host Peppermint for a visit this Christmas?

If you have room at the inn for one little Elf, Peppermint will be sent straight to your office door along with some ideas for your sElfie photos and useful resources to help you share your time with Peppermint with your own audience.

Signing up is easy, simply:

• Email fundraising@ageuknorfolk.org.uk to request an information pack
• When your pack arrives via email complete Peppermint’s Pledge form, detailing where we should send Peppermint and how you would like your donation to be used.
• Email your completed pledge form to fundraising@ageuknorfolk.org.uk by 28th November.
• Make your festive donation on Peppermint’s JustGiving Page by 28th November.

What happens once you’ve signed up?

• Once you’ve signed up and your pledge form and donation are safely in Peppermint’s Purse, we’ll send Peppermint straight to your door, along with some resources to help get you started with your sElfie photos and a special certificate, thanking you for your donation.
• Send us your sElfie photos detailing Peppermint’s escapades at your work place and we’ll share your pictures on our website, social media channels Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram (which have over 3,800 followers collectively) and in local press releases, making sure to tag you and share the festive cheer!

To get your business involved email fundraising@ageuknorfolk.org.uk to request an information pack.

How will Age UK Norfolk use the donations?

As an independant, local charity all funds raised will stay within our county, providing help and support to people in later life across Norfolk. Whether you'd like to make a festive donation to a service which is close to your own businesses’ ethos or make a general donation to be used across any of our services, every pound makes a big difference!
