Corporate Partnership

“Don’t be a melter,
drink Belter.”

Every can of Belter sold in Northern Ireland puts 5p towards Rural Support — the charity backing local farmers and their families.

How the pledge works

No small print, no rounding up at the till. It comes out of our margin, on every single can.

Donated from every Belter sold in Northern Ireland — shops, forecourts, wholesale, the lot.

0%

Straight to the charity

Paid directly to Rural Support to fund their frontline listening, advice and casework.

Doing this since

An independent charity set up in the wake of the foot and mouth crisis, and still going.

Why we’re in

The people who keep us fed

Farming in Northern Ireland runs on long hours and thin margins. Debt, mountains of paperwork, health problems, severe weather and changing family circumstances all pile up — and the help from government rarely arrives when it’s needed most.

Rural Support is there instead. A listening and signposting service for farmers and rural families, offering face-to-face support and practical help with business finance and debt, farm payments, benefits and mental health.

Keeping ’er lit means backing the people
who keep everything else running.
