Support Our EPIC Awards

Every year our team work hard to celebrate the achievements of West Sussex Children We Care For, Care Experienced Young People, those in Kinship Care, and all the adults who support them.

Throughout 2025 we will deliver multiple award ceremonies, and we are looking for sponsors who would be willing to support us. This way we will be able to celebrate hundreds of incredible young people across West Sussex.

We have created different sponsorship package options so you can pick the level you wish. Our next event will be on 27th September 2025.

If you are interested, then please contact us by email to voice@westsussex.gov.uk. We are happy to discuss different arrangements, such as multiple year support or sole event sponsor options.

If you are unable to support by opting for a sponsorship package but could offer support in other ways such as a gift in kind, then please do get in touch. Some ideas of previous support we have received:

• Prizes for goody bags – toys, pens, notebooks, books, vouchers, theatre tickets, sport event tickets
• Printing – support with printing celebration cards
• Transport – support with travel arrangements (taxis, minibuses etc) to help people attend the events
• Catering provision – provide catering or a discount on catering at one of our events
• Venue hire - provide a venue or a discount on a venue for one of our events

We are grateful for any support which can be offered and look forward to hearing from you.
