Corporate Support

Corporate Partnerships

Working Together Gets Results!

The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland is a registered charity.  We rely heavily on our fundraising to sustain the work that we do and this is why our corporate partnerships are so important to us. We truly believe that working together gets results. We want to help organisations’ key business and marketing objectives by offering exclusive and innovative opportunities to become involved with one of Scotland’s most prestigious and iconic organisations. A partnership with us offers companies negotiable benefits:

  • A captive market of 650,000 visitors each year.
  •  Exposure in LifeLinks magazine, which goes to our 22,000 members.
  • Positive association with an organisation committed to conservation, environment, research and education at home and overseas.
  • Brand awareness on site.
  • Quirky, positive press coverage.
  • Unique setting for corporate hospitality and/or product launches including the largest chimp enclosure in the country.
  • Second most popular visitor attraction in Edinburgh after Edinburgh Castle.

There are lots of ways that we can work together with businesses. 

Corporate Sponsorship

As our 20-year Masterplan to turn Edinburgh Zoo into a world class visitor attraction develops, we are in a fantastic position to tailor unique and bespoke sponsorship packages. By working together and listening to corporate needs, we promise to deliver on all expectations through exceptional account management with the cherry on top. We understand that all organisations have different needs, so no two corporate partnerships are the same. We offer projects ranging from £5,000 up to £100,000 which would give organisations title sponsorship of an enclosure such as Budongo Trail, our new home for the chimps at Edinburgh Zoo.  

Gifts in Kind

If you can’t give hard cash you can still help us by providing gifts in kind. This can be anything from end of line products such as fruit and vegetables to feed our hungry residents to more specialist equipment 

Corporate Donation

Organisations can also play a part by making a donation to any one of our UK based or overseas projects related to education, conservation or research. We have many projects on-going at the Society so there’s likely to be something that that fits in with your key values.  

Employee Fundraising

This is a popular way for staff to engage with our work. You may already have 'Dress Down Friday' so why not choose us and more specifically our residents to benefit from the money you raise.
