Corporate Partnerships
Our corporate supporters are no ordinary supporters, because our programmes for children with a serious illness and their families are no ordinary camps.
Start your partnership with Over The Wall today!
There are currently around 100,000 children in the UK living with a serious health challenge.
For these children, childhood is dramatically affected by hospital appointments and prolonged periods of illness. This can lead to isolation and loneliness, with dwindling confidence, mental health issues and low self-esteem. The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly exacerbated this.
At Over The Wall, we help children and their families to reach beyond the boundaries of serious illness to discover a world of mischief, magic and new possibilities.
We enjoy support and mutually beneficial partnerships with companies including GSK, Hasbro, Krispy Kreme and Abercrombie & Fitch.

Corporate Donors & Partners
Whilst the Covid-19 pandemic means all children have experienced some degree of isolation, children with serious illness have had an even more difficult time. They’ve experienced all the hardships that Covid-19 has brought us, whilst dealing with the symptoms and fear of their own health conditions. Children with serious illness and their families in the UK need support and relief now, more than ever.
We welcome corporate donors and funders and have a multitude of projects in need of support, to include:
- Health-specific camps and progammes in partnership with other health charities (to include diabetes, transplants and cystic fibrosis)
- Health challenge camps catering for children with up to 130 different illness types
- Specialist camps and programmes for siblings and entire families
- Outreach projects in disadvantaged communities
- Online programming for those who are too sick to ever attend a physical camp or programme
We work with all of our funders to provide detailed impact reporting, employee engagement and volunteering and provide opportunities to meet our team, the children we support and visit our projects.
