Could We Be Your Charity of the Year?

As we celebrate our 5th anniversary at The Blues Foundation, we’re proud to reflect on our journey and excited about our future, aiming to support over 4,500 children across Bedfordshire in 2025. This growth wouldn’t be possible without the incredible support of local businesses and community organisations.

Over the past year, we’ve partnered The Kingfisher and Club Towers via our Charity of the Year scheme, to raise vital funds through engaging and enjoyable events, from cake sales and spinathons to fashion shows. These partnerships have not only helped fund our programmes but have also brought people together to have fun while making a real difference in the lives of young people.

Chris Roberts, General Manager at The Kingfisher said:

“For The Kingfisher, our past ten months working with Blues Foundation as our Charity of the Year have been genuinely rewarding. Tom, Mike, Alysia, and the entire team have proven to be outstanding collaborators, offering consistent and invaluable support for all our fundraising events, from the earliest planning stages to successful delivery on the day. Their deep commitment to the Bedford Community is truly inspiring. Having seen first-hand the difference they make, we're delighted to announce our decision to recommit to Blues Foundation as our Charity of the Year for another 12 months! We're convinced there's even greater impact we can achieve together. For any business or individual seeking a charity partnership that truly makes a difference, we strongly encourage you to reach out to Blues Foundation. Their work consistently creates real impact in the local community.”

As you consider your “Charity of the Year” partnership for the coming year, we’d love for you to consider choosing the Bedford Blues Foundation. We’ll work closely with your team to create a meaningful, enjoyable, and rewarding partnership that not only supports your CSR goals but also brings tangible impact to the lives of the young people we support.
