Corporate Social Responsibility Partnership
If your organisation wants to make a positive social impact through supporting people who have been affected by homelessness and vulnerable housing in London, we would be delighted to work with you.
Not only will a CSR partnership with Unseen Tours help more vulnerable people access training and work opportunities through our tours, but it will also help us address negative stereotypes around homelessness on a greater scale, creating greater public awareness and ultimately improving attitudes and breaking down barriers that many homeless and vulnerably housed people face.
We especially enjoy getting employees and associates involved in our activities through CSR – participating in our tours and becoming advocates for our cause.
Sponsoring a new tour
Our Unseen Tours training programme has successfully created meaningful employment for 23 homeless and formerly homeless guides since 2010 – giving them earned income, confidence, a voice and social inclusion.
We want to work with more people who have been affected by homelessness, and help them create new tours in different parts of London.
With a one-off sponsorship, you could provide sustainable employment for someone who has experienced homelessness and give them a platform to breakdown the barriers between the homeless and main-stream society.
You can find out more about our social enterprise model here.
