The benefits to your organisation of becoming a corporate supporter of Birmingham Rathbone’s work with people who have a learning disability/difficulty are wide-ranging:

Your employees can develop new skills and abilities which they can bring back to their work place such as leadership, organisational skills and awareness of the barriers people with a disability have on a daily basis. 

You can involve your team in fundraising activities which will enhance their team building skills.
