ORGANISE YOUR OWN EVENT
Hosting an event is a great way to support the Hospice and the choices are endless when it comes to deciding what to do. Here are just a few of our ideas:

Organise your own gig
Performers and venues will often waiver their fee or offer a charity discount, you can boost your total by holding a raffle or selling refreshments.

Sponsored Event
Go on a sponsored; walk, swim, run a marathon, climb the Three Peaks, lose weight, sponsored head shave or give up smoking. You can get your friends, family and work colleagues to sponsor you to do something that you have always wanted to do! We will be more than happy to provide you with bespoke sponsor forms.

Coffee Morning
Invite your family and friends round for a coffee and cake and ask them for a donation – you could always gift aid your donations to boost your fundraising.

Car Boot Sale
Ask everyone for donations of unwanted items and hold a car boot stall.

Dress Down/Non Uniform Day
Everyone makes a donation to wear their own choice of clothes at work or school.

BBQ/Garden Party
Invite your family and friends to a charity BBQ/garden party where they fetch their own drink and contribute some food to a Jacob’s join. Charge an entrance fee; hold a raffle and various competitions.

Pub Crawl
For the over 18 years only!!! Think of a pub crawl route and ask the appropriate landlords for their permission (prior to the event) to collect donations. We are able to provide Rossendale Hospice T-shirts, collection buckets and stickers.

Club Socials
Ask your local landlord if you are able to organise a charity quiz or perhaps a darts, domino or pool competition or even a race day/night?

50/50 club
Ask all your family and friends for a donation of £1. Put all their names in a hat and the winner drawn gets half the money, you get the other half for your fundraising.

If you do wish to hold an event in aid of the hospice, please could you let the hospice fundraising department know either by telephone on 01706 253633 or by email fundraising@rossendalehospice.org
