Get inspired

Workmates

Whether at home or back at work there are heaps of things you could do with colleagues.
* Fines for untidiest workplace or home office, or the dreaded ‘You’re on mute!’
* Get sponsored to ditch the car and walk or cycle to work instead?
* If you’re not commuting now donate the money you’re all saving. Same for office treats and coffees.
* Host a social event online or in person. For example, a team cook along or ‘An Evening with’.
* Christmas isn’t far away either... what could you do for that?

Schools and colleges

With kids getting back to class, fundraising is a great way to rebuild social bonds and have some socially distanced fun.
* Host a performance or show involving pupils / students, online or outdoors.
* Sell class-made crafts on a site like eBay for Charity if you’re not able to have fayres or stalls.
* A TikTok challenge captured the imagination? Make it a fundraiser!
* Social nights (virtual or socially distanced) are always a hit - themed quiz nights, Bingo, online Articulate or a Netflix watch party maybe?

University RAG

RAG is a great way to bond with new uni mates. It be different this year but there’s still lots that can be done across and beyond campus.
* Organise a sponsored relay race with teams working together to cover distances, either in the same place or virtually around the country.
*Get different societies to set themselves a challenge relevant to what they do, e.g. music society performances or Battle Societies performing re-enactments!
* Offer online tutoring with proceeds to the Trust?

Clubs and societies

Clubs and societies are always looking for things to organise and causes to support year round.
*Organise a talk - if you don’t have someone already involved with the Trust to speak we can find you someone local.
* Raffles and auctions are popular for a reason. It could be donated goods but what about fun things? Auction promises; garden jobs, DIY or cooking! Can be online or in person.
* Could you host a socially distanced garden event or themed street party?
* Make us your Charity of the Year.

Santa raft race

"So many people are touched by cancer, people are keen to support financially. To find a charity which offers something so positive to young people really inspired us."

Camilla and Adam Johnson raised almost £4,000 for the Trust when they got dressed up as Santa for the Lewes to Newhaven Raft Race. The race happens each year on the River Ouse in East Sussex and involves spectators throwing eggs and flour at a whole host of novelty floats and their crew.
