Community partnerships
Supporting the communities in which we operate
We collaborate with an incredibly diverse range of communities. Organisations of all different sizes, in a variety of sectors, with distinct and shared challenges and ambitions. We believe that by working together towards a common goal we can continue to deliver great results.
Heart of England Forest
We have partnered with The Heart of England Forest as a Forest Founder to help drive progress forward by delivering tangible impact by helping grow the forest, ensuring tree health and maintenance, and optimising habitats that benefit the environment as well as wildlife. We are also funding pupils from a school in Birmingham (Kings Ark Academy) to take part in their vital ‘One Year in the Forest Learning & Skills’ project. The project will allow the pupils to have weekly intervention visits to the Heart of England Forest and support in improving their core knowledge of nature, social skills, emotional regulation and mental health.
Regeneration Brainery
We are proud to be a champion partner with Regeneration Brainery, a non-profit organisation whose mission is to diversify the property and regeneration industry by nurturing future talent and increasing social mobility. To date, we have welcomed students and ambassadors to our London and Manchester offices as part of their Brainery weeks.
Maiden Cricket
Our partnership with Maiden Cricket started with a simple ambition: to help more girls discover and progress in the game. Since then, it’s grown into something far more meaningful.
Together with Maiden Cricket, we started by kitting out 20 girls in the Ambassador Rising Star programme and the results were immediate. In 2025, we launched the Gateley Schools Programme to help “remove barriers to participation by providing high-quality, purpose-designed kit” for girls in state education, where access to cricket and suitable teamwear is still far from equal. To date, we have equipped and empowered girls in three schools in Surrey, plus the GB Wheelchair Cricket Team.
STEAMhouse
Situated in the heart of Birmingham in the extensively redeveloped Belmont Works, Birmingham City University’s STEAMhouse incubator is a large-scale collaboration and maker space set up to support local start-ups/ spin-outs from ideation through to implementation. We support STEAMhouse in driving innovation bringing inventors, entrepreneurs, businesses and craftspeople together to develop exciting new ideas and products; an initiative that closely aligns with our forward-thinking values.
The Purpose Pod
Gateley’s Purpose Pod shares insight from the forward thinkers the business engages with and looks at how Gateley delights its clients, inspires its people and supports its communities.
Supporting our communities
As a signatory to the Better Business Act, we believe that we can be a force for good, benefitting our people, clients, communities and the environment while also delivering profit.
