SC Key Fact Your kidneys are amazing: they filter around 180 litres of blood every day! 2 Kidney Research UK - Fundraising Toolkit

Key Fact 90% of people on the organ transplant list are waiting for a kidney. c Decide who you want to invite or to join in your fundraiser What c Decide what you want to do turn over the page for some inspiration! c Have you held a successful event in the past could you do it again? c Do you have any skills perhaps you are a fitness instructor or you bake great cakes? KEEP IT SIMPLE! simple fundraising ideas often raise the most money. c Do you want to set up something new? Where c Do you need a venue is it the right size? c Can you use it for free? When c Consider the weather plan for rain! c Link in with an established event have a stall at a local fete or festival c Do you need any special equipment, materials or insurance? c Indoors or outdoors? c Avoid other charity events, World Cup Finals, Wimbledon Finals etc especially if you are inviting the public c If you re inviting friends, try not to clash with birthdays or school holidays How c Make a plan work back from the date of your event and decide who is going to do what, by when c How are you going to promote your event posters, leaflets, social media, newspapers, radio? c Consider other ways to raise extra funds on the day c Make sure you can cover any costs and still raise money c Set yourself a realistic target and stick to a budget c Try to get as much stuff for free or at a discount And above all, MAKE IT FUN! Kidney Research UK - Fundraising Toolkit 3
4 Fundraising ideas With children Friends / family Pet show Cake sale Face painting Non-uniform day Disco Summer BBQ Karaoke night A themed party - Halloween, bonfire night Dinner party Bike ride Sponsored silence Talent show Summer fete Jumble sale Pamper parties Summer picnic Walks Treasure hunt Fancy dress How long will Christy have to wait to be saved? Christy developed kidney disease after being rushed to hospital with a ruptured appendix. She had to face the sudden shock of going immediately onto dialysis, three times a week, where she was hooked up to a machine for hours at a time, unable to move around. Her husband came to the rescue and offered her his own kidney but sadly Christy s body rejected it after thirty seconds. Our work funds research to help the thousands of people like Christy, who are waiting to feel well again. We can only do this with your support. Every day I hope the call will come to say a kidney has become available and I pray that this time it will work. 4 Kidney Research UK - Fundraising Toolkit
5 Key Fact On average a kidney transplant lasts only years. Workplace Community Office party Cake sale Sponsored no coffee or tea Dress down day Sweepstake Sponsored leg wax Office Olympics Guess the baby photo competition Wear something purple Raffles Car wash Dancing - salsa, Zumba, ballroom Car boot sale Fashion show A ball or dinner dance Pub quiz night Tea party or coffee morning Festival, fete or fair Car show Bingo night Stevie s dream is to be able to swim like other children Five-year-old Stevie was born with kidney disease. He has never eaten chips, never been swimming and he s not even allowed to have a bath. Now waiting for a suitable kidney, Stevie spends six nights a week, ten hours at a time, hooked up to a dialysis machine. With the shortage of available kidneys, Stevie may have a long wait. Stevie is desperate to lead a normal life like other children his age and we want to help make his dreams come true. Part of our research looks at repairing damaged kidneys, which would wipe out the need for transplants altogether. We can only continue this research with your help. Kidney Research UK - Fundraising Toolkit 5

Ball or celebrity dinner WHERE: Hotel, restaurant, marquee or conference centre. WHEN: Consider a Friday or Saturday evening.

10 Be safe and legal Guidelines of what to do and what not to do A safe and well-organised fundraising event guarantees that everyone has the best experience. It is your responsibility to make sure your event is organised efficiently and safely. Please read the tips below to ensure your event goes without a hitch. Donations Get sponsored by and collect donations from people you know and trust. Make sure that children are supervised and don t let them collect money from strangers. Collections Don t carry out your own house-to-house collections it is illegal without a special licence. You can t collect money in the street or any other public place without a permit from the local authority. You can hold collections in private venues like supermarkets and shopping centres as long as you have their written permission. If you are considering holding a collection as part of your fundraising please call us for advice or visit our website for more details First aid Make sure adequate cover is available for larger events. Recommended providers include St John Ambulance, the British Red Cross and the National Association of Private Ambulance Services. Licences Check with your local authority whether you need to obtain any special licences, eg public entertainment (Temporary Event Notices), collection, music or alcohol licences. Food To check current food hygiene rules visit or alternatively contact your local council who can advise you on rules in your area. Alcohol Check if the venue is licensed or contact your local council to find out more about getting a temporary licence. Insurance Remember, whilst we appreciate your support, Kidney Research UK cannot accept liability for any fundraising activity or event you undertake in our aid. If your event needs insurance, you will need to take it out yourself. Key Fact Raffles and lotteries A small raffle or tombola does not usually require a licence, as long as the tickets are only sold on the day of the event. Big lotteries (raffles where tickets are sold in advance and over a large geographical area) are complicated and require a licence so it is advised you don t organise this type of fundraiser. For further details on the rules around raffles and lotteries, visit our website or you can contact your local authority or the Gaming Commission of Great Britain. Did you know more than 53,000 people in the UK are being treated for kidney failure each year. 10 Kidney Research UK - Fundraising Toolkit
