From bake sales to marathons, fundraising can be hugely rewarding and fun. Here are some other ideas to help get you started.
At home or in the community
- Sponsored challenges – Challenge yourself, to run, cycle or trek and raise money whilst doing so. Please think of asking for sponsorship via JustGiving. See the Runthrough website for some events to enter.
- Shop, shop, shop. When you shop at over 4,000 top stores including John Lewis & Partners, M&S, Sainsbury’s etc. via Easyfundraising, they’ll turn a percentage of your spend into free funds for us. Simply sign up and search for the retailer and start shopping. It’s that simple!
- Ask friends to donate money instead of buying birthday gifts.
- Host a dinner party for friends.
- Host a community fundraising event.
At school/nursery
- Organise a bake sale.
- Hold a mufti day, children can wear their own clothes for a small donation.
- Organise a concert, disco or film night.
- Arrange a sporting event.
- Host a craft afternoon
At work
- Organise an office tournament e.g. 5-a-side football challenge or a netball tournament.
- Hold a coffee morning.
- Have a dress down day in the office for a small donation.
- Check whether your company operates a match giving scheme, where they’ll match pound for pound the amount that you raise.
