There are so many ways you can help Sight Life, and without people like you we couldn’t continue to support those living with sight loss in South Wales.
Why not take on a simple challenge to help us support people with sight loss. Here are just a few tips and tricks to get you started:
1. Quick and easy ideas
- Give up your guilty pleasure and see how long you can last.
- Shave off your hair and ask for donations.
- Clear out your house and sell items you no longer need at a car boot sale or on eBay.
- Empty your pockets and donate loose change every night for a month.
2. Something active
- Organise a long walk or mountain climb with friends and family and get sponsored.
- Turn swimming or cycling into a challenge.
- Hold a longer zumbathon class and ask dancers for donations or collect sponsorship.
- Arrange a friendly football tournament and charge teams to enter.
3. With friends
- Hold a quiz night.
- Hold a themed party and get your friends to pay to take part.
- Ask for ‘Give in Celebration’ donations instead of gifts.
- Hold a movie night with popcorn and snacks and charge for tickets.
- Offer your friends and family manicures, facials and pedicures, all in their own home for a fee.
4. At work or school - Get your work colleagues/friends involved in your fundraising.
- Charge £2 per person to have a dress down day.
- Have a cake sale
- Donate a day’s wage and ask your employer to match your donation.
- Do a job swap with someone in your office and get sponsored.
5. In a group
- We are looking for volunteers to join and set up new fundraising groups. Each fundraising group will help raise funds and awareness in their community. This could include anything from a coffee morning, to a fun run, to handing out information leaflets.
