Sponsors

Every pair of Supershoes is funded by donations from kind sponsors, who come in all shapes and sizes…..

From parents of previous recipients who want to ‘pay forward’ the gift of Supershoes, to fundarisers who have organised an event of some description in order to make a donation. We receive one-off payments from some and regular sponsorship from others. Some want to remain anonymous, whilst others are happy to share their donation and/or story.

Here are some of those we are able to share with you.

Super Sponsor - ICAP

Super Sponsor ICAP

TP ICAP is a global firm of professional intermediaries that plays a pivotal role in the world’s financial, energy and commodities markets. Since 1993, on one special day every year, they host an ICAP Charity Day, where the ICAP business gives its day’s revenue and the ICAP brokers donate their day’s commissions to some amazing charitable causes, globally. Thanks to the efforts of their customers, colleagues and suppliers, a fantastic £4.6million/US$6million was raised in 2019, bringing the total amount raised over 27 years to approximately £150million! Supershoes was a beneficiary of ICAP Charity Day in 2019 and a donation from the day has so far gone towards funding 80 pairs of Supershoes and the creation of two colouring books for oncology units. In 2022, ICAP was also kind enough to donate once again to Supershoes from their charity day.

Sponsor - Ingenious Photo Genies

Ingenious Photo Genies

We’ll let Ingenious Photo Genies tell us in their own words why they love supporting Supershoes! “Ingenious Photo Genies is a husband and wife cooperation, creative out-of-the-box photography with a seriously funny attitude. We love to capture the moments of people’s lives to give them back some precious memories to look back on. We’ve always been enthusiastic about supporting local people and Mark found Supershoes on social media a good few years back, and what the charity does grabed his immediate attention. As parents, our biggest fear has always been that one of our children gets sick, with us unable to elp them. We are ever so lucky that they are all healthy, but realising what other families must go through due to cancer is heartbreaking. We just felt the urgent need to try our best and help in any way we can - and we try to do it through photography. During the past few years, we have tried to grab every opportunity to support Supershoes; we are very pleased that our annual Halloween photoshoot event has now become a tradition in Monkston and we manage to raise more and more funds each year and wish we could do much more!” We’re just happy you do what you do with your creative minds and huge hearts, Niki and Mark! Thank you so much!

Sponsor - Inspired by Super Maisie

Inspired by Super Maisie

Super Maisie received her Supershoes in June 2018. They were created by Super artist Steph to reflect her love of rainbows, bright colours and playing in the sunshine; Maisie also loved looking at the stars and flying rockets to the moon; and Peppa Pig and Hey Duggee! Maisie’s family told us. ‘Maisie’s face lit up when she saw them, she showed them to everyone and she chose to wear those Supershoes at every opportunity she could. She may not be here to wear them any longer, but we will always treasure them.’ Maisie’s inspirational family and friends are busy raising funds to bring more smiles to Super brave children. A collection was held at the CIWM Gala Dinner event, raising more than £2000. A family friend, Jennifer Hill, ran the Carsington Half Marathon and raised enough money for 10 pairs of Supershoes. Another friend, Harvey Sugden, ran the Edinburgh marathon, raising more than £800. Maisie’s Mummy, Julie, and her friends - competing as the ‘Maisie Rainbow Runners’ took on the MK Colour Rush, raising enough for at least 25 more pairs of Supershoes, maybe even 30! Maisie’s family promise there are more events planned, and more Supershoes to be created, inspired by Maisie.
