Energizer and Ryman Partner with Starlight to Power Joy for Children in Hospital This Christmas
From 21 October to 24 December 2025, for every specially marked pack of Energizer batteries sold in Ryman stores and online, Energizer will donate £1 to Starlight. The funds raised will help provide play resources, games and activities that bring comfort, laughter and distraction to children receiving medical care across the UK.
''At Energizer, we believe in the power of giving back - especially during the festive season. That’s why we’re proud to partner with Starlight and Ryman to help bring moments of joy to children in hospital,'' Said Energizer Business Account Manager spokesperson, Rahul Kaushal.
''For every specially marked pack sold, we’ll donate £1 to Starlight, supporting their incredible work to brighten young lives over Christmas through the Power of Play.''
For many children, Christmas in hospital can be a challenging and isolating experience. This partnership will help ensure that more than 150,000 children have the chance to play, smile and experience the magic of the season, even away from home.
“Thank you to Energizer for putting the Power into Play this Christmas for thousands of children,” said Nicola Wilson, Head of Corporate Partnerships at Starlight. “Your support will make such a difference to their time in hospital this season.”
As part of Starlight’s ongoing partnership with the Theo Paphitis Retail Group, the campaign will run across all Ryman stores nationwide and through their website.
Michael Errington, Chief Operating Officer at Ryman added: "As long time supporters of Starlight and the huge impact play can have in healthcare, the Ryman team is delighted to help support this initiative through our stores this Christmas. What better time of year to enable our customers to donate to a fantastic charity via products whilst getting that new stationery feeling in one of our stores around the UK. We are delighted to work with a like-minded partner on this initiative and thank them for their support."
By buying Energizer batteries this Christmas, customers aren’t just powering toys, they’re powering play, laughter and resilience for children who need it most.
