The Challenge
Missing People had achieved some success in corporate partnerships. In particular, they secured and delivered partnerships with BHS, Barclays London Region and Royal Mail. They were yet to crack a large-scale partnership worth £100k+ p.a. They were confident that with the right approach this would be possible.

RELATED CASE STUDIES
In early 2021, SolarAid’s corporate partnerships portfolio was unbalanced. One major partner dominated in size and contribution and its significant support was coming to an end in 2023, while a large number of smaller partners were time-intensive to manage and delivered low returns. Critically, the portfolio lacked mid-level, long-term corporate supporters. The team had limited time for strategic new business development, and the existing pipeline lacked focus and momentum. Corporate partnerships were not seen as a strategic priority, and income had plateaued as a result.

Remarkable Partnerships helped SolarAid refocus its business strategy, launch a bold purpose-driven campaign, and build stronger mid-level and in-kind partnerships. This strategic shift transformed their approach from short-term transactions to long-term collaborations, ultimately leading to renewed growth and a landmark £1 million partnership in 2025.
Research from Age Concern in 2005 revealed that 44% of people over 50 in the UK did not have Internet access. Further research from OFCOM found that older people, particularly those in lower income brackets, felt alienated from the digital economy.

In 1998 Ken Deeks, Managing Director of Arrow PR (now Director at The Amber Group), approached Action for Children with the idea of uniting the IT industry to help prevent youth homelessness. He was inspired to contact the charity when he saw their ‘House our Youth 2000’ campaign poster and, being from the IT industry, he assumed it was something to do with preventing the millennium bug. But he soon realised it was for something far more important!
