Friends of Abbey Fields offers a limited number of annual sponsorship places for local businesses. Sponsorship runs for FOAF’s membership year, from 1 July to 30 June, and supports our work to protect, enhance, and promote Abbey Fields.
We keep sponsorship simple, consistent and factual in presentation, in keeping with the tone of our newsletters and website.
What sponsorship includes
Within the 12-month membership period (1 July – 30 June), sponsors receive:
- One of 8 sponsorship places
- Acknowledgement in FOAF’s three printed newsletters (business name and 5-word descriptor)
- Printed and digital copies of each newsletter
- A listing on FOAF’s website sponsors page, including business name, 12-word descriptor, logo and website link
Listings are presented in a factual, non-promotional format.
What we need from sponsors
To set up a sponsorship listing, we ask sponsors to provide:
- Business name and mailing address
- Contact name and email address (for our use only – not published)
- A short descriptor (up to 5 words) for newsletter use
- A longer descriptor (up to 12 words) for website use
- A logo suitable for website display
- Website address, if you would like us to include a link
Sponsorship fee and payment
The sponsorship fee is £100 for the year. Payment is due on confirmation of the sponsorship place. To be included in the Summer newsletter, we will need all wording, logo and payment by 1 June.
Renewal and availability
Sponsorship places are limited to 8. Existing sponsors are given priority to renew for the following membership year. Any places not taken up after the renewal deadline will be offered to new sponsors.
