Our passionate and kindhearted supporters have fundraised for us in lots of creative ways, and our work would not be possible without it!
When you raise money for us, you can expect our support and advice, shout-outs on social media, and our undying love. You’ll also receive a thank you pack in the post to show our gratitude, and get updates from us on where your money goes.
If you want to or are fundraising for us now, get in contact with our Fundraising Officer Ingrid. We can give you access to our fundraising kit and resources, and tell our network about what you’re up to!
Got your plan in place already, or want to set up a page now? We recommend using GoFundMe, and all the money that you raise will come through to us automatically when you select us as your chosen charity. If you’ve got money to give in a different way, please get in touch with our team.
Looking for fundraising ideas?
Challenge event - do something out of the ordinary, and get people to sponsor you for your achievement!
Sports or physical feats - climb a mountain, play 18 holes, or eat a whole bunch of ferrero rocher chocolates!

Anything else you can think of! We’ve had people do a virtual row across the Irish Sea, organise a charity football match, or take part in events like the Great North Run
