Inspiration for your Event
Looking for inspiration on how you can fundraise for us?
We’ve got ideas just for you and the local community.
Get Active
Do Something Daring!
Always wanted to abseil down Spinnaker Tower or Arundel Castle? Or take a leap out of an airplane? Why not combine your bucket list with a fundraising bucket and ask people to sponsor you to do it.
Get Some Excerise
Run, walk, or cycle to raise money. You can get sponsored for taking part in an organised event, or for completing a solo challenge you set yourself.
Hit the Target!
What about a darts match? You can make it serious and charge an entry fee to raise funds. Or make it fun and set challenges like throwing whilst on one leg and charge per throw, or charge a penalty fee every time someone misses the board!
Get Together
Anyone for a cuppa?
Tea and cake makes everything better, so why not invite friends and family around for afternoon tea? Or if you are more of a latte lover, make it a coffee morning. You can do this at home, at work, or even turn it into a picnic when the weather allows.
Who’s Coming for Dinner?
Perfect for every occasion. Pick a theme and match your food, dress and decorations. Or spread the load and ask everyone to bring a dish. Ask diners to pay what they think the meal is worth, or what they would have paid to go out for dinner at their favourite restaurant.
Let’s Get Quizzical!
The pub, village hall, local sports centre and your best mate’s garden are all venues suitable for hosting a quiz. You host the night and guests pay to play. Simple... but the questions might not be.
Get Creative
Cut and Colour?
Take pledges to let other people choose what colour you dye your hair. Or just shave it off!
What’s in a name!
Name the teddy, bunny or bear. Give people a range of options or let them choose their own, then pick the winner out of a hat.
Fancy Dress Days
Fancy dress isn't just for Halloween. It's a great way to raise money any time of year. If you’re the boss, why not have your staff come to work in fancy-dress and ask them to pay a small donation for the day? Raise the stakes by letting colleagues vote on what you should wear for the day (in return for a donation, of course.)
Sweepsake
Take bets on anything you like – the winner of your favourite TV reality show, the name of the next celeb baby, or just the number of sweets in a jar. The winner keeps a proportion of the takings and the rest is donated.
Guess the Baby Photo!
Great for giggles at work or just amongst friends. Pay for entry and see if you can spot who has changed the most over the years.
Get Busy
Ready, Steady, Bake!
Make like Mary Berry and bake your way to fundraising success. Whether you run the event at work, school or your home be sure to find out about any specialist diets (or perhaps just favourites) first to maximise sales! Or why not make it competitive and have a bake off with an entry fee? Either way, it’s win/win – you raise money and you get to eat cake!
Come into the garden
If your garden is in full bloom or you have a house with a colourful history, why not open your doors for an entry fee and host an open house. With the kitchen close by, it will be easy to raise extra funds by offering refreshments, and a great way to meet the neighbours!
Table Top Sale!
Spread the joy by selling off your unwanted items. After all, one person’s tat is another person’s treasure! Take your goods to a tabletop sale or car boot. Or sell from the comfort of your own home using eBay and choose to donate all or part of your profits to us.
