Corporate Supporters

Support the ADSHG Through Your Workplace

We’re so pleased you're here. As a small charity, corporate support makes a huge difference to us. Whether you're an employee or business owner, there are many ways your workplace can support our vital work.


Why Support the ADSHG?

The Addison’s Disease Self-Help Group is the UK's leading charity supporting people with Addison’s disease and adrenal insufficiency. We work to:

  • Provide life-saving information and peer support
  • Raise awareness among the public and healthcare professionals
  • Campaign for better treatment and care
  • Publish resources and educational materials for patients and medical staff
  • Fund vital research (learn more)

We rely on the generosity of individuals and organisations to support our vital work. That’s where your workplace can come in.

Get in touch


Ways your workplace can help:

Corporate Donations

A one-off or regular donation from your employer can directly make a huge impact, from supporting newly diagnosed patients to running awareness campaigns.

This could be:

  • A one-time gift
  • A monthly contribution to help us plan ahead
  • A donation in lieu of Christmas cards/gifts

Free or Discounted Goods and Services

Does your workplace offer services or products that could benefit a small charity? Your company could help us by donating:

  • Printing, design or marketing services
  • Venue space for meetings or events
  • Software or IT support

These practical contributions reduce our running costs and allow us to do more with less.

Matched Giving

Did you know some employers match the amount their employees raise for charity? If you've raised money for the ADSHG, your employer might match it, doubling your impact.

Just ask your manager or HR team if a matched giving scheme is in place.

Charity of the Year

Does your company nominate a ‘Charity of the Year’? We’d love to be considered! Becoming your workplace’s chosen charity means we can work together over a year to raise awareness, engage your team and fundraise in fun and meaningful ways.

We can support you with materials, ideas and advice to help bring our cause to life.

Payroll Giving

Payroll Giving is a simple way to support us through your salary. It’s easy to set up and offers tax benefits - meaning your donation goes further.

Ask your HR or payroll team if your company has a scheme in place. 

Learn more about Payroll Giving

One of the approved agencies for payroll giving that we work with is CAF, Give As You Earn.

Learn more about CAF

Sponsorship and Partnerships

Your business can sponsor:

  • Awareness campaigns
  • Charity publications
  • Fundraising events
  • Patient resources or educational guides

These partnerships help us reach more people, while also showing your business is committed to meaningful social impact.


Not sure where to start? No problem - we’re here to help.

Whether you want to make a donation, explore a partnership, or just learn more, we’d love to hear from you. 

Get in touch

Together, we can raise awareness, save lives and support everyone affected by Addison’s and adrenal insufficiency.

Thank you for considering the ADSHG - your support means the world to our small charity and our community.

  • Why Salt?

    Why Salt?

    Why do people with Addison’s and adrenal insufficiency crave salty, acidic and sour foods at diagnosis, and then salt remains our “pick me up” when diagnosed? Professor Simon Pearce explains the connection between aldosterone, fludrocortisone and why you should always listen to your salt cravings.

  • Coronavirus Vaccines and Adrenal Insufficiency

    Coronavirus Vaccines and Adrenal Insufficiency

    Everyone with a steroid-dependent adrenal condition should get the coronavirus vaccine and boosters to reduce their risk of getting coronavirus. This is because people who are steroid-dependent are at increased risk of needing hospital care if they get coronavirus, due to the risk of adrenal crisis.
