Businesses and Workplaces

Regardless of the size of your business there is always a way for you to get involved with fundraising for the hospice. Below are a selection of our favourite ideas, but for a more comprehensive list please see our fundraising A-Z Alternatively come up with your own event, the more innovative the better!

Yellow Day
Our ever popular yellow day is an easy way for your company to get involved with fundraising for the hospice. Staff can wear something yellow to work in return for a donation of £1. For more information please see our yellow day page.

Smoking Shelter
Does your business have a smoking shelter? Why not charge a small fee for entry? Proceeds can be donated to the Hospice.

Sweepstake
Why not run an office sweepstake? Typical events include the World Cup, Wimbledon and the Grand National, but why not explore other areas such as Big Brother, the X-factor, Britain’s Got Talent?

Job Swap
Ever fancied doing someone else’s job for a day? Would people pay to do yours? Why not auction your job off for the day?

Don’t forget to keep your event safe and legal. For help with applying for licences and for more information contact Julie Brett on (01424) 456380  or
