Organise an event

 Tell us about your event

You can help us to provide care to people with life-shortening illnesses by organising your own fundraising event or taking on a sponsored challenge. 

You may already know what you want to do to fundraise for the Hospice, but if you are still undecided, here are some ideas to get you started. Think about what you enjoy, what you’re good at and what resources you have available. 

community fundraising event ideas

If you are unsure if fundraising is for you, see what some of our fundraisers had to say about their experiences. 

Our fundraising team are here to support you. We have lots of Hospice equipment and promotional materials to make your event or challenge look great, such as: t-shirts, posters, balloons, banners, donation buckets, stickers, merchandise and leaflets. We can also list your event on our website and we are more than happy to provide you with any advice and guidance you might need.

We would love to hear your ideas so please get in touch to tell us about your event or challenge and to discuss any materials you may need. We will always do our best to accommodate you and support your fundraising activity. You can call the Fundraising Office on 01485 601701 (Monday-Friday 9am-5pm) or email [email protected]

What if I have already held my event?

Some people prefer to just get on with it and send the proceeds or sponsorship to us afterwards, which of course is fine! We love hearing what our supporters have been up to - why not tweet or email us some photos of your event or challenge? You may just inspire someone else too...

If you need to send us a cheque please make it payable to 'The Norfolk Hospice' and drop it off at the Hospice or post it to us along with a note of your contact details and what you did to raise the money.
