FUNDRAISING  EVENTS

We really do appreciate you fundraising for us. We have so much we want to do to support those with scoliosis and to fund more research into the condition.  There are so many ways that you can help us by raising whatever you are able to, whether it be from a fun run, a walk, trek or bake sale at work. Here we show you how to go about fundraising using events as your focus and we'll show you some of the programmes that we offer. We are truly grateful for any support that you can give us and in return we will give you amazing fundraising and training advice - guaranteed!
 

STEP 1

Decide on the type of event you'd like to do.  If it's a running event (you can walk these as well in most cases) there are lots of options from 5km, to marathons, and beyond. Enter the event on the event website and then join our team by going to the 'Get in Touch' section below and letting us know. That way we can then support you with training plans and fundraising ideas. If you raise a certain amount we will then refund your entry fee! Find out more in Step 3.

 

STEP 2

The next step is to set up a fundraising page on the JustGiving website. We'll show you how to do that and how to share it with your friends and family.  We have lots of fundraising ideas that we'll give you including the destination based ideas below.  (We use these for our virtual event runners and they work really well.) There are videos, playlists and themed fundraising ideas! You can download our fundraising guide below.
 

STEP 3

We'd love you to raise whatever you can. There are no fixed targets if you have your own entry in an event, but if you do raise a certain amount we'll gladly refund your entry fee.​

​

  • Raise £200 and get your entry fee refunded up to the value of £40

  • ​Raise £500 and get your entry fee refunded up to the value of £100

  • ​Raise £1000 and get your entry fee refunded up to the value of £200
