Partners
Help make exceptional experiences possible.
We want to work with partners we are proud to stand beside publicly: brands, producers, experts and organisations that raise the standard, strengthen the experience and help more people take part.
Where partners can fit
Built with people who raise the standard
Equipment and outdoor brands
Quality tools, cooking equipment, workwear and outdoor kit that genuinely belongs in the experience.
Food and local producers
Butchers, farms, game suppliers and independent producers who care about quality, provenance and reducing waste.
Experts and creators
Chefs, pitmasters, butchers, farmers, makers and recognised creators who can teach, demonstrate and share real skill.
Employers and organisations
Partners that can support practical opportunity, community development, training or progression.
Sponsors
Visible, values-aligned support across events, equipment, content and access.
Local + national
We want strong local relationships and can also work with national or international brands that fit the Forge 54 culture.
Visible and valued
If we partner with you, we should be happy to say so.
Sponsors and partners can be visible at events and across the website where the relationship is genuine and approved. The aim is meaningful integration, not covering the experience in logos.
The fit test
Would accepting their money make it harder for Forge 54 to live its own values or damage the trust people place in us?
Aligned with our values. We do not knowingly accept partnerships where an organisationā€™s core activity or documented conduct is fundamentally incompatible with Integrity, Belonging, Accountability or Excellence.
