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. Bromsgrove Prep Pupils start your online fundraising today by clicking here.
  • 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

Let’s get started!

If you would like to support Primrose Hospice, please contact our Fundraising Team at 01527 889796 or by emailing at fundraising@primrosehospice.org We can work with you to provide you with the ideas, tools and resources you need to help ensure your fundraising is fantastic.

Primrose Hospice & Family Support Centre is an independent charity, offering care and advice to patients living with a life-limiting illness and support for families who are bereaved or who have a family member with a life-limiting illness in North East Worcestershire.

We receive only 14.6% of our required running costs from the NHS, so as an independent charity, we rely on the support of individuals and businesses to help us to raise the £1.95 million needed each year for us to provide our services free. By asking for friends and family to sponsor your challenge, you will be helping Primrose be here now and in the future for your community.
