Our charity is entirely self-funded, so we rely on donations and fundraising to continue supporting local families. There are lots of ways you can help fundraise for us and we are here to support you.


Get started

Want to raise money but don’t know where to start? There are hundreds of ways to generate funds, depending on how much time you have to give. Here are a few ideas that might inspire you:


  • Host an event - a bake sale at work, quiz night, bingo, coffee morning or jumble sale
  • Take part in a sporting event or challenge - run a 5k, 10K or even a marathon!
  • A dress-down day at work or school
  • A raffle or tombola
  • Shave your head 
  • Jump out of a plane (with a parachute on, or course!)


If you’re planning a raffle, certain rules apply. Gambling rules state that the draw must take place on the same day tickets are sold. Otherwise, you will need a license from the local council. (link to Small society lotteries | North Devon Council)


Set up a JustGiving page or we can provide collection buckets and other resources for your event, whatever works for you!
