Fundraise at School & College

The future of fundraising starts with you.

Take inspiration from the ideas below, or maybe you have a new one of your own.

  • Take part in our annual Yellow Week in June. Dress in yellow from top to toe, sell yellow cupcakes, even custard pie the Headteacher!
  • Do you love to dance? Why not run your own Danceathon event with your dance group or friends!
  • Flourishing Fivers is a great way for young entrepreneurs to use their business skills to turn a fiver in to a fortune! The whole class could get involved, selling handmade arts and crafts, cakes and snacks, or something completely different.
  • Take on a big challenge. Whether it’s participating in a walkathon, swimathon, or sponsored silence, or wearing something silly for the day!
  • Host a fancy dress or dress down day at school. A small donation from each pupil can add up to a big difference for Primrose Hospice.
  • Hold a fun event like a book or bake sale, a car wash, or a talent show.
  • Have one of our collecting cans at school and collect donations all year round.

“I’m not sure where I would be if I didn’t have these sessions with you. You have helped me through the most difficult time of my life. I felt supported and so comfortable to speak about really sensitive subjects. Now is time for me to spread my wings and fly!” – (A young person using our Children and Young People Service).

Your fundraising checklist – how to make sure your fundraising is a huge success!

  • Pick a date for your fundraising.
  • Get in touch with our Primrose Hospice fundraisers who can provide you with lots of ideas, banners, buckets and everything else you need to make your event a success.
  • Recruit friends and family to volunteer to help you.
  • Make a list of the things you will need on the day.
  • Set up a JustGiving online giving page or use paper sponsorship forms to increase your fundraising.
  • Spread the word. Tell as many people as you can about your fundraiser by making and displaying posters, leaflets, ask an adult to share on social media or in a newsletter
