Why doesn’t SAS organise the annual SAS Ball anymore?
Due to the change in licensing laws the SAS Ball is no longer economically viable. This is reviewed regularly and there may be exceptional years when we choose to organise the Ball, such as significant anniversaries. As an environmental charity with an increasingly broad remit, it is also important that we focus on our core mission rather than allocate staff time to organise this event.
Can SAS sponsor individuals, events or student projects?
As a small environmental charity with limited resources we cannot offer any financial support or assistance to individuals, events or other organisations.
Can I use the SAS logo to co-brand a product?
If you have a product through which you’d like to support us, please contact Head of Fundraising, Pete Lewis on [email protected], to discuss the use of the logo and any other necessary background information.

The SAS logo cannot be used without prior permission. Permission will be granted once the agreed benefits, including any financial contribution, for SAS are established and the environmental standards of the product are ascertained.
