A national advertising company has donated billboard space across the country worth £5 million to support the NSPCC.
Elonex, which operates more than 3,000 digital billboards and advertising screens in city centres, next to major roads and inside shopping centres across the UK, made the announcement at a recent NSPCC fundraiser.
The pro-bono advertising agreement will be in place for a five-year period and will begin with the charity’s Christmas campaign, which will be broadcast across 335 spaces in the UK.
In celebration of the support from the local business, Elonex’s CEO, Nick Smith, has received an NSPCC Loyal Award for his support over the last nine years to the children’s charity.
Amanda Synott, NSPCC’s Community Fundraising Manager for Birmingham, said: “We are delighted with the generous donation from Elonex and would like to thank them for their ongoing support.
“The company has been crucial in raising vital funds for the NSPCC in the Midlands and has helped us to reach influential people in the local business community.”
Nick Smith, CEO at Elonex, added: “We’ve been supporting the charity for over nine years now and I feel incredibly proud to have been recognised by the charity with receiving an NSPCC Loyal Award.
“At Elonex, we are passionate about the work of the NSPCC and we hope that our donation of advertising space will help to gain the charity more exposure. With more presence in the community through digital outdoor adverts, we hope that further people will support the charity and its vital aims to be there for children across the UK who are at risk of abuse.”
