Creating a lasting legacy for communities

For charities and the public sector

Read a powerful impact statement from a UK food bank charity which benefited from a Splash Project in June 2022 here

 

Through our work with charities and communities across the globe, Splash Projects has:

  • Facilitated the donation by clients of more than £3 million worth of material donations to charities
  • Benefitted communities with infrastructure builds worth in excess of £12 million
  • Given at least 10,000 children a safer place to play, learn and develop

Charities, communities, schools and councils often have incredible vision, but limited resources to make it a reality.

At the heart of every Splash Project is a charity or community in need. Over the last 20 years, we have supported dozens of charities and communities across the globe focusing on vulnerable people from children with severe physical or mental disabilities, to economically deprived communities, to elderly care home residents with dementia or other conditions.

All our projects promote the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.

 

If the following sounds familiar, we can help…

You may have raised money for a new playground but have several years to wait before you’ll have enough to start the work…Maybe you need to renovate your care facility, but don’t have the expertise to begin the project…Or maybe you have an urgent need for manpower to get something key done…

If this is you, then please get in touch to see how we can help!

How it works

Because our business or business school partners funds the build, it is completely free for you! There really is no catch!

Our typical projects include building playgrounds, developing sensory or educational gardens and creating outdoor communal seating areas. But we love a challenge, so we are always open to new ideas!

We will work with you to understand exactly what you need. Following an initial site visit, our in-house design team will turn your vision into a 3D design and one of our experienced Project Managers will plan the project on your behalf.

Splash Projects will search for a corporate partner – often business or a business school local to you – to fund the necessary materials and deliver the project. A team of facilitators from Splash oversees all the work and ensures that Health and Safety compliance is high on the agenda.

The durability of your project is always a top priority for us and after the project build stage, our Project Manager checks the whole site to ensure that everything has been completed to a high standard. We also ensure that the final build fully complies with safety standards and is in accordance with local regulations. We often find that the volunteers are keen to help you longer-term, beyond when your initial requirements have been met.

Even if we cannot help your charity or community straight away, we will continue to search for a corporate partner for you and keep you updated on our progress.

Testimonials

Working with Splash Projects has been truly remarkable; the experience from start to end was first class. The splash team was extremely professional and ensured that what we received was beneficial for our services users.

Grove Adventure Playground, UK

The end result exceeded expectations. The entire Splash Projects team were all incredibly professional, efficient, effective, reassuring, funny, and absolutely fantastic to work with.

London Youth, UK

We were immensely impressed with the Splash team. The outcome of the work was more than we could ever have expected and the children who use the garden will have many hours of enjoyment because of the efforts of all those who worked on it.

Geoff Kerr, 174 Trust

It was a wonderful experience to work with Splash. Sometimes I felt overwhelmed about the professionalism things were accomplished. I wish it would happen more often because there are plenty of unfortunate and exploited people who deserve it.

Deepashram Orphanage, Northern India

Splash has had an incredible impact. You have created a place to dream and where the possibilities are endless. This is such a tremendous contribution to thousands and thousands of children. You all served as role models for my staff, me and my kids.

Stephen Quirk, Executive Director, Youth Emergency Services and Shelter in Des Moines, Iowa

The project was extremely ambitious and I still cannot believe how much was accomplished in 10 hours. Splash were particularly clever in the way they organised, planned and facilitated the whole event. When the children came on site to experience the new play equipment it really was delightful to watch the amazement on their faces. Personally, I can’t wait to work with you again and watch another miracle unfold.

Anne Warner, Assistant Director KIDS London

We were very impressed on one hand by the technical professionalism of Splash, the result being of very high quality, but also by the used methodology. Splash knew how to plan, guide, support and manage 40 volunteers, representing 19 nations, with a lot of competence, firmness and kindness, while knowing how to stimulate and maintain motivation and harmony in the realisation.

L’ENVOL pour les enfants Européens, Paris

I cannot emphasise what a fantastic impact you have made on our organisation. You helped us realise a number of our aims and other new opportunities. When you first approached us, I was apprehensive as it seemed so big, but you helped us rethink and challenge our approach of making ‘small’ changes. We would definitely recommend other charities to take the plunge, trust what you can do, and be open to opportunities. Thank you to everyone at Splash and Santander who were involved.
