Charity No: 1096479
Skill sale Estimate £50 - £100There are lots of skills people will pay money for including car maintenance, knitting and gardening. Ask for donations of skills - like an hour of IT Support or baking a birthday cake – and hold an auction to sell them to the highest bidders.
Board or card game night Estimate £80 - £300Gather family and friends together for a night of Monopoly, Cluedo, Scrabble or even video games. You could break out the playing cards and instigate a whist drive, bridge night or cribbage tournament. Ask everyone to pay to enter and maximise fundraising with a raffle or by selling refreshments.
Poverty challenge Estimate £200 - £1,000 Challenge yourselves to live below the poverty line for a set period of time. How long could you live with just £1 a day to spend on food?
Knit-a-thon Estimate £40 – £120Hold a nimble-fingered knit-a-thon and see how many stitches you can knit for charity. You could make teddies, scarves, blankets or jumpers to display or sell afterwards. Get sponsored per stitch or per item completed in an allotted time.
Jams and chutneys Estimate £50 - £150When there’s a glut of fruit and veg on the allotments why not make homemade jams, chutneys and pickles? Selling them to the local community via an honesty stall or at a local event is a great way to raise funds.
