Raise Money for Us

For example, running a marathon for Age UK HHB is a powerful way to raise funds and awareness. Here’s how to get started:

• Register: Sign up for a marathon with charity spots available.
• Create a Fundraising Page: Use platforms like JustGiving or GoFundMe to share your story and why you’re supporting Age UK HHB.
• Promote Your Campaign: Spread the word through social media, email, and word-of-mouth to encourage donations.
• Share Your Progress: Keep supporters updated on your journey to maintain engagement and inspire further contributions.

Get your colleagues and employer involved to amplify your impact. Here are some ideas:

• Charity Dress Down Day: Host a dress-down day at work where employees donate to dress casually. Promote it in advance to maximise participation.
• Corporate Matching: Encourage your company to match employee donations. Many companies have matching gift programs that can double or triple the amount raised.
• Office Competitions: Organise friendly competitions like bake sales, talent shows, or fitness challenges, with entry fees going towards Age UK HHB.

Honouring a loved one by raising funds in their memory is a touching tribute. Here’s how to set up a memory page:

• Choose a Platform: Select a reliable fundraising platform for memorial pages.
• Share Your Story: Write about your loved one, their connection to Age UK HHB, and why you’re raising funds in their memory.
• Invite Contributions: Reach out to family, friends, and community members to donate. Share the page on social media and through email.
• Hold a Memorial Event: Consider organising a walk, dinner, or service where attendees can donate in honour of your loved one.

Bring your community together for a fun and engaging event. Ideas include:

• Charity Concerts: Local bands or choirs perform with ticket sales going to Age UK HHB.
• Bake Sales: Bake and sell goods with proceeds supporting the charity.
