Key Things to Remember When Organising a Fundraising Event

• Choose a date- remember to give yourself enough time to organise your event. Find out when other big events are going on in the area so you don’t clash.
• Choose a venue- make sure it has all the facilities you require and ask if you need a licence for your type of event.
• Make sure you are aware of what costs you will incur and when. You need to plan how to cover your costs (e.g. how many tickets need to be sold.) It’s fine to ask people to donate goods and services to a charity event!
• Make sure you have all the help you need to run the event- check everyone is free on the chosen date.
• If you are running a raffle please ensure you have read our raffle guidelines. If you are planning to run a draw with pre-printed tickets you will also need to abide by our Terms and Conditions, which you can find here.
