Throughout our four years of operation, the High Tide Foundation has engaged with over 1,000 young people and is currently working with 60 member companies and 35 schools. The charity is looking to scale-up its activity further with additional programmes and activities for young people in industry.
Events
Naturally, funding this activity is a key challenge but we are determined to retain a free membership policy, with member companies committing time and resources to the activities of High Tide whilst cash funding is sourced elsewhere.
Due to the success of last year’s Fundraising Ball, in which we raised over £24,000, we’re pleased to announce we’ve set a date for this year’s event, Friday 23rd September at Wynyard Hall’s Grand Marquee. Below you’ll find the invitation with details of the event which we would be delighted if you or your company could attend.
Until 29th February, High Tide members can secure a table at a discounted rate. If your company is not currently a member of High Tide but you’d like to pledge your support, please email Kim Upex – k.upex@hightidefoundation.co.uk.
To enquire about purchasing a table, or sponsorship opportunities, please get in touch with Alison Smiles – events@highfoundation.co.uk.
We look forward to celebrating the great work of High Tide and the many achievements of our young people on Teesside at the Ball and we hope that you will join us.
