Funding is important and we're glad we can support you with a grant, however we know that it's about more than that. Here are some of the ways we can offer further support.
Ways we can support you
Healthy Cities
Healthy Cities is a free sustainability programme that our people, customers and partners can all get involved in.
Our movement challenge takes place from 1-30 June. Tracked by our free Healthy Cities app, you can team up and step up with some healthy competition through our leader boards.
The more we move together, the more money we donate to causes that make our cities greener and healthier. Our steps plant trees, build outdoor classrooms and regenerate green spaces in our communities. There's up to £1m available to support local projects.
Get in touch at Healthycities@bupa.com for more information.
Free wellbeing workshops
Working for a charity is an amazing thing to do, however we know that you deal with tough decisions and often heart breaking cases on a day to day basis. It can take its toll on your energy.
Managing your energy can help you take more control and keep the right balance in your life. We offer free wellbeing workshops to our grant recipients.
Legal pro bono
Bupa’s UK legal team could support your organisation with free legal advice.

There are over 20,000 people working for Bupa across the UK and they are able to request up to 3 days volunteering leave. If you have volunteering opportunities - skilled or general - then please do let us know. We'll advertise these in our internal volunteering database.

Support with political and stakeholder engagement
Bupa has an experienced in-house team of government affairs professionals, who handle engagement with political stakeholders and policy developments. We could assist your organisation with support on engaging with stakeholders, including national, local or regional government, such as writing a letter or seeking to raise awareness of an issue that will impact your work and relationship with the Bupa Foundation.
Email BupaFoundation@Bupa.com and let us know the details of your organisation and request for support and we'll let you know if we can help.
We are a non-politically aligned organisation and will support organisations whose work aligns with that the aims of the Bupa Foundation and the values of Bupa Global & UK.
