Could you organise your own event?
We’re grateful for anybody who can support the charity by hosting their own fundraising event. In the past, supporters have organised events including tennis tournaments and bridge mornings but the possibilities are endless: from a simple coffee morning or dinner party, to a quiz night or sports/games event, right up to a gala dinner or other ticketed occasion! Let us know what you have in mind or are planning and we’ll give you as much support as we realistically can!
GET IN TOUCHStuck for event ideas? Here’s what others have done…
Agnes Dexter, 8, chose to raise money for us because she wanted to help other children have what she has: a good primary education. Together with her best friend Amelia she organised a day of Halloween-themed activities, games and treats at home for family and friends, and raised nearly £250.
Kate Lawson organised a dinner for friends at a local artisan restaurant/coffee shop which included a raffle with prizes donated by local businesses.
Toby Harkin, 5, was shocked to learn that some children in the world go hungry at school and decided he wanted to sell some of his toys to help them get a meal. He raised more than £400 from family, friends and neighbours.
