Adoption UK partners with pay per view streaming service
Adoption UK has entered into a 12-month strategic partnership with Lounges.tv, a new, pay per view streaming service, to help expand how it communicates with supporters.
This partnership also allows Adoption UK to use Lounges.tv as a fundraising platform, reaching the widest audience possible through livestreams and sharing existing content to its audiences.
The first initiative Lounges.tv will be supporting Adoption UK with is The Big Education Night In. On Wednesday 7 December from 7.30pm-9pm.
Lounges.tv will host this interactive, educational experience in partnership with Adoption UK, created to bring fresh ideas for ways of supporting care-experienced young people in schools. Bringing together expert speakers from the world of secondary education and children’s social care, the event will see individuals pitch ideas on how educational experiences for those involved in care can be improved. At the end of the event, the audience will get to vote on the idea they would most like to see put into action.
Designed to raise funds, as well as educate people on the lived experience of young people who have been in care, the event is ticketed at £10 for the live event or £5 for the recording which will be match-funded during Big Give Week.
The Lounges.tv streaming platform launched earlier this month with the aim to disrupt and democratise the streaming market with all creators paid 80% of stream or content revenue within 24 hours.
