Become a Business Partner

Partnering with the Drinks Trust is about aligning your brand with the UK's dedicated drinks industry charity.

It's about investing, promoting and enhancing your company's brand and ethics, whilst representing all that's great about the industry we love.

Now more than ever, drinks companies are prioritising corporate responsibility, recognising the essential role they play in supporting the wellbeing of our vibrant trade community and investing in the future of our workforce. Partnering with The Drinks Trust is a powerful way for your business or brand to lead positive change in both your own organisation and the industry as a whole.

We rely on annual donations from our partners to deliver our services, but our partners also find immense value in working with our charity. Find out more about how to make a difference by partnering with The Drinks Trust.

Support Your Staff

By partnering with The Drinks Trust, you’re ensuring that the people who make our industry a success will always have somewhere to turn for practical, financial, and emotional support. As well as the training and skills to grow their career and our industry.

You’ll also receive exclusive benefits, including the assets and content to show your investment in our industry people, and services to help you foster a healthier work environment; the Wellbeing Champions programme, which trains a member of your staff on workplace wellness best practice, and access to a dedicated management support phone line.

Engage Your Wider Network

As our partner, you help to spread the word about The Drinks Trust’s mission – not only by displaying our partnership logo on your company’s website, but also by actively informing your wider industry network about the crucial services your generosity is funding.

Our charity serves more than 4,000 beneficiaries each year, and 80% of those individuals work in drinks retail across the on- and off-trade – the very people who promote, pour, and sell your products. Your alignment with The Drinks Trust is an opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of everyone in your business’ supply chain.

Be a Beacon for the Industry

When you partner with The Drinks Trust, we shine a light on your commitment to the drinks industry workforce. We set up a dedicated listing on our website featuring your business’ logo and contact information, share our partnership across our social media channels, and provide opportunities to promote your products, services, and brands at our official events.

We interviewed Annie Ingram, Brand Manager at Brockmans Gin, and Maria Joensson, Consumer Experience Manager from Funkin Cocktails a couple weeks ago. They explained why their companies are Business Partners of The Drinks Trust and why the companies choose to include the charity's logo on their products.

"The Drinks Trust is a vital support to our industry and a charity that Hatch Mansfield is hugely proud to support. It is there for anyone to turn to in a time of difficulty, and no more so than now. The various initiatives and services on offer are superb and truly empower people in the drinks hospitality industry. The whole team are wonderful to work with, and we view supporting them as being of paramount importance to us as a business. We will continue to support them as much as we can, now and in the future."

SOPHIE WREN, Marketing Director at Hatch Mansfield

"The Drinks Trust is easily one of the most valuable charitable organisations in the drinks industry. We became a donor, supporter and business partner of the Drinks Trust in 2020 and haven't looked back since. As well as facilitating training for our team to become Mental Wellbeing Champions, we've benefited greatly from the Drinks Trust's Drinks Community and their generous invites to events and networking opportunities too. If you're in a business operating within the drinks industry, it really is a no brainer to support the Drinks Trust - we'll proudly continue to support them for many years to come."

TOM HARVEY, Co-Founder & New Client Director at YesMore Agency

"We’ve partnered with The Drinks Trust since 2017, and in that time, we’ve found ourselves in awe of the work they do. The support that the Trust provides to our industry peers when they need it the most is invaluable, and we’ve seen the drinks community continue to thrive with their guidance. Just knowing that there is a resource out there like the Trust is a big reassurance for us, and we hope to continue working together for years to come."
