At Brake, we are proud to partner with organisations across the UK that are united in their mission to make roads and driving safer for all.
Together, we can build a partnership that will benefit and enhance your business and help us achieve our vision of a world with zero road death and injury, where we can all move in a safe and healthy way, whoever we are and however we travel.
Our corporate charity partnerships also support the vital work of Brake's National Road Victim Service – helping road crash victims and their families in their darkest and most difficult times.
We partner with organisations that inspire colleagues, create happier workplaces, and promote the impact of the partnerships that allow us to continue to be there.
Every partnership is unique, but here are some suggestions for ways we could work together.

Why partner with us?
A partnership with Brake is a great way to support our vital work and highlight causes that are important to your team or customers. But don't just take our word for it, hear what some of our business and corporate partners have to say about working with Brake.
As a partner, we have found the relationship to be beneficial. The access to study materials, support, and other opportunities have helped to identify ways to improve our performance and build support within the organisation to make the changes required. Access to Brake materials has also assisted with delivery of our own campaigns.
