Local & social
Bringing together your local community is a fantastic way to raise money.
We know it can be difficult to ask the same friends and family to support you with your fundraising so why not expand your reach? Local pubs, businesses and activity groups can provide amazing support when coming together for a cause.
Our community fundraising guide has lots of helpful tips on how to bring people together and raise money. Read all about some amazing success stories, such as Rothwell Harriers running club and their annual run, which has raised over £20,000 since it began!
For schools
Engaging school children with charities and their local community can be beneficial for everyone.
Our schools fundraising ideas are a brilliant way of getting children active and improving teamwork. For the younger children there are fantastic ways to get crafty and creative, whilst raising money and awareness of the Appeal. For the older students there is the opportunity to put their entrepreneur skills to the test and raise as much money as they can.
Don’t forget to let us know about your activities, as we would love to visit your school and let the students know how their efforts are helping improve lives!
Collection cans
Could you place a collection can in your local community? Pubs, shops, cafes and office receptions are just some of the places that you could place a collection can.
It is a fantastic way to help your business raise money and awareness for the Jane Tomlinson Appeal. Every penny donated is fantastic way to support us over time.
If you are trying to reach a fundraising target for one of our events, placing a collection can in your community could be a brilliant way of working towards your target.
