Other Fundraising Ideas
From a pub quiz to asking for donations at your own celebrations, here are some practical fundraising suggestions to get you started.
Coffee morning: bake some cupcakes and host your own morning tea
Personal events: weddings and birthday parties, for example, offer easy and successful fundraising opportunities. Why not ask for gifts to be made into donations to Crossroads Care Richmond and Kingston?
Pub quizzes: a fun way to raise money. Get your friends and family down to your local and ask each team to pay to enter
Fun run or walk: get fit and raise money at the same time. It could be 3km, 5km or a mini-marathon
Golf day: arrange with your local golf club to hold a golf day. See how many balls can be potted while raising money!
Love to cycle? Arrange a London to Surrey bike ride event to help raise awareness and funds for us.
