Partnering with Debate Mate
We help businesses create life-changing community impact, while providing employees with meaningful volunteering opportunities.
School Sponsorship
Sponsor a single school or a cluster to bring the Debate Mate programme to young people across the UK, often using CSR or Foundation funding. This could be a group of schools in a current region we work in, or in a brand new region.
Programme Takeover
Launch national discussions with 6,000 young people. Co-design, week-long takeovers focused on a theme important to your company, with nationwide student debates and optional competition integration.
Recruitment
Partner with us to access a diverse and talented pool of university and secondary school students equipped with communication and leadership skills.
Social Value
We partner with companies bidding for government contracts to help meet Social Value obligations through meaningful and bespoke programmes.
Engagement Events
Large-scale volunteering events designed to bring professionals and students together in dynamic, meaningful ways.
Something Else?
Not every partnership fits in a box – and that’s exactly where our young people thrive.
If you’ve got a creative idea or a challenge that could benefit from the insights, voices or energy of our young people, we want to hear from you. Our network includes thousands of persuasive, passionate young people across the country, who we work with week in, week out – whether it’s speaking on Sky News panels, beta testing new products, joining focus groups, or featuring on podcasts, let’s create something brilliant together – get in touch.
