Does HSC still do sponsorships?

As part of HSC’s initial role of replacing tobacco sponsorships, many hundreds of sponsorships were undertaken in the early 1990s eg, Smokefree Fashion Awards and Smokefree Rally.

However, in the mid-1990s, social marketing was adopted as the way forward for the HSC. As a result, sponsorships are now used (occasionally) as just one way to support HSC’s work.

As a general rule, HSC does not sponsor individuals, clubs, schools, local or regional organisations or teams, overseas travel, the purchase of equipment or capital assets or events or activities that are happening within three months of the request.

Events, activities and organisations we do support often have the following types of characteristics. They:

• are nationally attended
• have large numbers of our target audiences present
• support our communications themes.
