Information and support Volunteers, voluntary and community groups engage in a range of fundraising activities. This toolkit provides ideas for fundraising, resources available and sources of information and support. 1. Some fundraising ideas A-Z Ideas kindly provided by the Alzheimer s Society and Charity Challenge In regards to the A-Z ideas, check out Keeping it legal and safe, page. Aerobics organise a sponsored aerobathon with the help of gyms, leisure centres and sports clubs. Antiques roadshow - find experts to donate their time. Charge for entrance and valuations; maybe link with an Antiques Fair and charge stall holders. Afternoon tea/coffee morning put the kettle on and get baking! Entertain guests with raffles, auctions, tombolas and live music. Auction of promises - people offer goods or services to be auctioned (e.g. cleaning, chauffeur for the day, decorating, haircut etc.).
3 Bag packing at local supermarket enquire at your local supermarket if you can pack bags for shoppers. Board games evening invite friends to play Scrabble, Cluedo, Tiddlywinks etc. Charge for entrance or game fee. Car washing contact your local supermarket or local council to approach customers at car parks. Alternatively, ask neighbours for a donation for a car wash. Christmas decorate your house and ask visitors to make a donation to admire! Dance your socks off - barn dance, bollywood, belly-dance, disco, salsa, teadance, zumba etc. Recruit an instructor who knows the dances. Charge for admission and refreshments. Dog show charge proud pet owners to show off their pooches. Ask pet shops to sponsor event. Easter egg hunt charge entry fee and ask shops to donate eggs. Expert talk - use an expert or well-known personality to donate their time. Charge admission, have a break to sell refreshments and auction their latest book, invention or autograph. ebay - register yourself on ebay.co.uk or another auction site and auction off your old, unwanted items. You're likely to raise more money than you would from a car boot sale. Fancy dress days - pay to wear fancy dress or dress down to work, school etc. and fine those that don't make the effort. In the office have crazy tie, bad hat or yellow and blue only days. April Fools Day is ideal for this. Fete, festival or fun day - team up with organisers of an annual event. Celebrities will help draw in crowds. But there's lots of work, planning and costs involved! Fun runs - organise your own; you decide the venue and the distance. Try to get a local personality to compete or start the event off. Or, if you do not have time, simply book a place in an officially organised event and ask friends for sponsorship Foreign coins ask people to donate their left-over holiday coins, and change into sterling once you have enough! Guess the... weight of a cake, number of sweets in a jar, name of the doll, who the baby is (from photos) 3
4 Hair cut, head shave or beard shave - get friends and family to sponsor you! Head and tails auction - good to do at a fundraising meal. Get everyone to stand up and pass a bucket around collecting people's change (although encourage 5 notes). Everyone decides whether they're heads or tails by putting a hand on their head or their bottom. Flip a coin and announce the results. Those who get it wrong sit down. Continue until only one person is left. Winner gets a prize. Ironing - offer your ironing services at a cost. International Day themed events, decorations, food and costumes. Jigsaw race or marathon Karaoke - Arrange your own x-factor contest. All you need is a machine, a room and plenty of refreshments! Left-handed day try doing everything with your left-hand for the day! Line dancing make sure you have a caller and plenty of refreshments! Masterclasses - are you good at something? Why not organise a small class to show other people how to do it and charge people a fee. Memory meal - transport yourself back to the 60s, 50s or the 40s. Dress in the style of the day and try to cook some dishes of the day. Mile of Pennies make a mile of pennies ask for donations to make it grow. New Year resolutions get sponsored to stick to your new year s resolutions. Open garden/s ask an established group for advice to set up; or try Pantomime stage a production and sell tickets. Pub games or Quiz night stage a championship of traditional pub games darts, skittles, dominoes, cards etc. Team up with your local pub to organise a quiz night. Promotion get businesses to advertise in an event programme. Number programmes and use as raffle tickets. Race night bets are taken before a pre-recorded race is shown on a large screen. Props and film are supplied by race operators. Check raffle laws as you may need to register depending on the circumstances. 4
5 Raffle ask local firms to donate prizes and sell tickets. Check raffle laws as you may need to register depending on the circumstances. Safari supper travel from restaurant to restaurant, having a different course at each stop. Ask restaurants to support your efforts, but set a cover charge to include all food and your cut. Shoe shine get shinning at your nearest shopping centre or train station! Sponsored silence stay silent for as long as you can! Tin-can alley Knock down a stack of tin cans and win a prize. Take care for health and safety! Tombola Pick a raffle ticket out of a barrel and match it with a ticketed prize. Unwanted gifts arrange a post-christmas sale of unwanted gifts. Walks organise walks to places of interest; themed walks such as ghost walks are also popular. Welly throwing fun at a fair or fete. The winner is the furthest thrower! Watch out for health and safety! Windscreen wash raise funds washing windscreens at supermarkets. World food get together with your friends, colleagues and neighbours; provide dishes from around the world; decorate, dress up, charge for dishes/entrance. Xmas hampers Make up and sell your Xmas hampers. Include food, drink (if alcohol note licensing regulations see below) toys and gifts. Yes day - say yes to everyone's demands (within reason!) and ask people to sponsor you to do so. Zodiac evening: invite a guest astrologer and charge for horoscopes and entry.

6 Charity Challenge Rednose Day 2. Collections, raffles and selling merchandise Collections and raffles Collections and raffles are often used as an additional way to raise money during a fundraising event, such as a concert, fete or meal. There are regulations regarding collections and raffles, so depending on the circumstances you may need to register your raffle or collection with the local council. See A Guide to Regulations for Raffles, Lotteries and Fundraising events : Selling merchandise It is possible to raise money through selling items such as mugs, pens, bags, badges and tee-shirts etc. As this involves an initial outlay for the products it s advisable to plan how will you cover costs, raise money, where you will sell the items and who you will be selling to. 3. Keeping it legal and safe Alcohol & Public Entertainment Licence If your event involves the sale of alcohol and/or various entertainment you may need licences. Contact your local council or see A Guide to Regulations for Raffles, Lotteries and Fundraising events : Data protection Make sure that your fundraising activities comply with data protection. Don t keep any personal information (electronic or paper) any longer than you need to, and don t give out personal details without the person s permission. For further information contact VAL Help line Food and non-alcoholic drink If you are selling or providing free food and non-alcoholic drink you should contact your council s environmental health department at least 28 days before the occasion. In most cases you will be required to register with the council which requires the completion of a form, see: A Guide to Regulations for Raffles, Lotteries and Fundraising events : Performing, playing music or showing films If you are performing, playing music or showing a film in public, you will need 6
7 licences to perform copyright material, see: A Guide to Regulations for Raffles, Lotteries and Fundraising events : Public Liability Insurance If you or your group are running an event, or activities, open to the public it is advisable to consider Public Liability Insurance which will protect you against claims made by a third party for injury or property damage as a result of negligence. For further information contact VAL Help line Raffles, lotteries and collections It may be necessary to register a lottery (raffle, bingo or other games of chance) and check out guidance for collections, see: A Guide to Regulations for Raffles, Lotteries and Fundraising events : Risk assessment & safety plan If you are putting on an event or running activities in public, it s advisable to have a risk assessment and a safety plan. For further information contact VAL Help line Challenges, sponsorship and shop-on-line fundraising Charity Challenge Offers UK and world-wide challenges such as trekking, biking, climbing, skiing, sledding and rafting whilst raising funds for charity. You can raise money for any registered charity as long as they give you permission. Challenges range in duration from (3-18 days); and costs vary depending on trip and package you choose. Tel Easy Fundraising Shop on-line and raise money for charity. You can shop with over 2,000 well known stores and each will donate up to 15% of what you spend Raising money via donations Gift Aid Charities and Community Amateur Sports Clubs (CASC's) can claim the tax back when donations are made by UK tax payers; for example for every 1 donated from a basic rate tax payer an additional 25p can be raised. 7 To use Gift Aid you need to register with Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC), ask all donors to sign a Gift Aid declaration, make regular claims to HMRC, and keep accurate records. HMRC
8 Give as you earn or payroll giving Payroll Giving enables employees to give to any UK charity directly from their gross salary (before tax is deducted), giving immediate tax relief on those donations; for example a 12 donation each month by a 20% tax payer enables the charity to receive 15. This process can be managed via a provider listed in On-line donations, below. Standing orders You may be able to encourage your supporters to pay a monthly standing order to your group. In order to do this you will need to give them your group s bank account details so they can ask their bank to set up a standing order. It s worth reminding people that they control the standing order, and they can change or cancel it any time. Also ask them to let you know when they ve set up a standing order so you will know who the money is from when it appears in your bank account. 6. On-line donations All provide an on-line system which receives donations and adds gift aid if entitled. Charges vary for services. B My Charity A commission free, online fundraising service for UK registered charities. It is also suitable for individual fundraisers seeking sponsorship for marathons and challenges etc. to raise funds for charities. Charity Aid Foundation CAF processes credit/debit card donations from your group s online profile. Also processes give as you earn donations. Just Giving Charities pay a 5% transaction fee on donations and a 15 monthly charge for the service, which includes a portal and access to tools. Virgin Money Giving A set up charge and 2% is taken off donations. Gift Aid is reclaimed from HMRC on behalf of charities and passed over in full. Other donations/ payment services Providers such as Paypal, Google Checkout or Worldpay, can also be used to receive donations. You do not need to be a registered charity but you will need to register with them, and give them your bank account details. 8
