A quiz night, bake sale, sponsored walk or workplace challenge can bring people together while supporting animal care. Your event can be small and local or a bigger team effort.
Get in touch before using the rescue’s name in event publicity or arranging a public collection. The team may be able to help with advice, posters and information.
Plan a fundraiserHelp behind the scenes
If you enjoy meeting people, organising activities or lending a practical hand, ask about volunteering at fundraising events. Available roles depend on the event and the rescue’s needs.
