SignHealth relies on the support of donations from statutory funders, charitable trusts and foundations, companies and individuals to deliver our work. By helping to raise funds for us, no matter how small, you will be making a real, tangible difference to a small national charity working at the heart of the deaf community. 

If you are interested in supporting our work, would like to get involved with fundraising and want to know more please contact the Fundraising Team at fundraising@signhealth.org.uk

SignHealth also offers a range of fabulous events to support our fundraising so please look at our events programme - or organise an event yourself. Our Events page has some ideas for you and provides more information about how we can help you. 

By supporting SignHealth, you can help us to: 

  • Tackle disadvantage and improve quality of life through better health
  • Empower deaf people to fight inequality in health and healthcare
  • Promote deaf-awareness and independent living
  • Give people a choice about how they live, building life skills to live independently
  • Help us change the way people are treated in society

Leaving a lasting legacy

At SignHealth we really appreciate every gift we receive, no matter how big or small. But we do understand that for some people, particularly with things getting more expensive, it can be difficult, no matter how much they would liketo support us.

An alternative is to remember SignHealth in your Will. As well as helping deaf people across the UK, it could be good for your family too by reducing any inheritance tax your family might need to pay on your estate.

If you are thinking about leaving a legacy to help deaf people in the UK and would like to receive more information, or talk to someone in strictest confidence, please contact fundraising@signhealth.org.uk

SignHealth’s new direction and ambitious plans mean that it’s a very exciting time to be working with us. In addition to the benefits working with a charity can bring (local PR, enhanced brand reputation, increased worker commitment), SignHealth will enable you to:

  • Reach a target audience of healthcare professionals and the deaf community
  • Cement relationships with your local community
  • Create a deaf-friendly workplace to improve efficiency and well-being

Because we are relying on you, we will work with you to meet your charity objectives and commit to fully supporting you throughout the partnership – contact us at fundraising@signhealth.org.uk to find out how.


Employee fundraising

Nine out of ten people say their employer’s social and environmental responsibility is important to them and healthcare is an issue that affects everyone, meaning your employees can relate to what we do. 



We have formed a partnership with Bell Fundraising Limited and a group of other charities (Action Medical Research, Childlife, Arthritis Research Campaign, Guideposts Trust, Muscular Dystrophy Campaign, Mencap, RNID, The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation, RNIB and The Children's Society) to form "Friends at Work".

On behalf of "Friends at Work", Bell Fundraising Ltd can visit your company to let individual employees know that they can help these organisations, including SignHealth, through payroll giving. This is a new and unique concept in payroll giving in that they work with us directly and all donations are split twelve ways between the charities involved - rather than having to choose one.

If you would like to support SignHealth as part of the "Friends at Work" group, please contact fundraising@signhealth.org.uk or Bell Fundraising Ltd on                      01732 459010          or info@bellfundraising.co.uk
