Fundraising ideas

Thanks to supporters like you, we are able to provide people with the care and support they need to help them lead independent and fulfilling lives. We believe that everyone should be supported to live their lives in the best possible way to help them reach their full potential. If you believe that too then you’re ready to be welcomed into the Making Space Fundraising Community.


There are so many ways you can raise money to help us - from taking on an endurance challenge, to celebrating a special occasion or organising an event in your community or where you work.

Whatever you choose to do, you will know you are making a huge difference to the people we support.

Here are some ideas to get you started:

Fundraise at Work

Fundraising at work is a great way to build team spirit, have fun and there are so many different ways to do it. Head to our company giving (link) page to find out more.

Weddings and special occasions

Make us part of your big day or special occasion and hold a collection or donate to us on behalf of your guest instead of providing favours.

Hold a bake off event

Find out who is the star baker. Bake like Mary Berry and you're on the way to fundraising success. This is the perfect event to organise at work, school or even in your home.

Hold a coffee morning or dinner party

Welcome family, friends and colleagues for a morning of coffee, cake and chat or an evening of 'Come Dine With Me' style fun. Either way, make sure fundraising is top of the menu.

Sell your handmade crafts

If you enjoy making handmade arts and crafts, you may wish to sell                                                                            them to raise funds or give a percentage of your sales to charity.

Hold a bingo night

You can host it at home, school or work. Find some great prizes, learn the best bingo calls and wait for your lucky number to come up.

Fundraise in school/college or university

Dress down days, sweets in the jar, seasonal parties, fashion shows and quizzes are all great ways to fundraise in your school, college or university.
