With Friends & Family

Getting together with loved ones is a great starting point:

• Take on a sponsored walk or run
• Host a Come Dine With Me night
• Organise a fun-filled quiz night

At Work

Bring some fun into the workplace with:

• A Dress down day
• An office bake off or bake sale
• Coffee morning or Afternoon Tea

With Children

Fundraising is a great way to teach children about giving back:

• Talent Shows
• Fancy dress days
• Cake sales (always a hit)

For Businesses

Corporate fundraising makes a big difference:

• Nominate Sparkle as your Charity of the Year
• Set up payroll giving or Match-funding
• Run your own company event — and we'll support you with PR and promotion

Sparkle Fridays

Join us on the first Friday of every month for Sparkle Fridays! Wear your Sparkle Friday t-shirt, paired with a dress-down or casual day — or simply have a dress-down day, fancy dress, wear something sparkly, or don our signature Sparkle purple.

Participants pay a small donation to take part, making it a fun and easy way to fundraise regularly or as a one-off event.

It’s a great way to show your support, raise awareness, and help Sparkle continue making a difference.

Contact fundraising@sparkleappeal.org to purchase your Sparkle T-Shirts.

So you have chosen your fundraising event or challenge. What's next?

Now it’s time to shout about it!
Spreading the word is key to your fundraising success, so start promoting your event as early as possible — before, during, and even after it takes place.

Tell everyone — friends, family, neighbours, and colleagues.
Social media is a fantastic tool for sharing your story, tracking your progress, asking for donations, and inviting people to get involved. Just try to give your supporters plenty of notice!
