How to get involved

There are so many ways you can raise money to support our causes.

Whether you’re an individual fundraiser, group, or business, you can help us make a lasting impact to your community.

Here’s some ideas about how you can get involved.

Fundraising ideas

It doesn’t matter if it’s couch to 5k or doing 70 consecutive 70-mile triathlons in 70 days (yes, that did actually happen), we love seeing the amazing challenges people take on to support us.

Why not test your limits with a cycling or swimming challenge? It doesn’t have to be sporty, either. If you’re a bookworm, how about reading a book every week for a year? Whatever you choose, we’ll support you in any way we can.

You could organise a charity run, midnight walk, quiz night, or bake sale to bring your community together and raise funds. Just make sure you stock up on lemon drizzle cake – it always sells out.

Ok, so you want to support us, but marathons are actually quite hard. We hear you. If you’re able to support us directly by donating, that’s just as powerful.

You can donate directly on our GivenGain page. It’s simple: select the amount, whether you’re giving monthly or as a one off, and complete the payment details.

Bring your team together doing something fun for purpose. Or even better, find out how to become one of our corporate partners and get a range of workplace benefits while you support us.

Not many of us want to think about writing a will. It isn’t just something to cross of your to-do list, though. It’s for the people you love, to make their lives easier, and your chance to leave a legacy that lasts long after you’ve gone.

We work with Octopus Legacy to help you write your will for free, while supporting the people who need us. If you choose to include a gift, you can find Waythrough on the list of charities.

You can also speak to us about setting up a tribute fund or collect donations in memory of a loved one.

Gifts-in-kind can be just as good as donations.

You might be an artist, willing to auction some of your work for us, work in a shop that’s got bedding going spare, or you might be having a clear-out of toys and books that our young people’s services, family intervention projects and Education Centre could make use of.
