School Fundraising Ideas & Charity Events

Want to get involved?

Get your school involved in fundraising events to keep our helicopters flying. From fabulous fundraising activities and ideas to lesson workshops, there are loads of ways to get your nursery, primary or secondary school thinking about raising money to support a local charity.

Whether you are organising a one-off fundraising event, or you’d like to adopt us as your Charity of the Year partner, we have lots of resources to get you started. Got a School Council? We have an information booklet along with awesome goodies for each member of the Council.

Not sure how to go about it? Our friendly team are waiting for you to contact us at [email protected] and a member of the team will be in touch.

School charity events for all ages

The great thing about fundraising is it’s inclusive and fun for all, regardless of age or ability. School charity events are the perfect way to get kids of all ages to give back to the community for a great cause, whilst encouraging teamwork, creativity and a feeling of success.

From nursery to secondary school, different activities can help raise vital funds. From crazy hair days, Wear it Yellow, or sponsored silences, there is something for everyone to contribute to a charity event.

Our fundraising promise

The support of our fundraisers is vital for keeping our services running, so we want to give you something back with our fundraising promise.
