Fundraising events are a good way for people to have
fun and raise money for us at the same time! We hold regular
events throughout the year and these can vary from anything
like ceilidh dancing to our annual Charity Golf Day.
You can also raise
funds for our work by arranging your own event, there are
so many ideas of things you can organise, and the only limit
is your imagination!

Organising Your Own Event |
Why not host an event on our behalf, it’s a great way to have fun and support a
worthwhile cause at the same time! Here are a few ideas to get you thinking!
- Get active and do a sponsored walk, or cycle or sponsored anything!
- Hold a party, ceilidh or disco and add a donation on to the ticket price
- Ask people to donate money to us in lieu of birthday or anniversary gifts
- Arrange a Fun Day or Fete
- If you have a special talent, think of imaginative ways to use it to raise funds
- Hire out your services for the day, for example if a friend needs help with some DIY
- Fundraise at work by arranging a dress down day, or, if you’re the boss, charge people
to leave one hour early on a Friday!
As with many charities, our resources are limited and we are not able to help with the actual
arranging of the event or supplying volunteers to help out. We can however help with things like
providing sponsor sheets and giving you tips on how to get the most out of your event.
