L – Lovely Lemons: The classic lemonade stall has everything – good tasting lemony drinks, and a chance to donate the proceeds. This is a great one to do with the kids.

M – Make something: If you’ve got an eye for creating something amazing, you could make it, sell it, and donate the cash. Everyone will give just that little bit more if it’s for charity.

N – Night time: When the sun sets, it’s time to fundraise. Organise a sponsored sleepout or sponsored walk in the dark.  Head to our Sleepout page for some tips.

O – Online Gaming: Grab your favourite game and host a 24-hour gaming marathon. You can stream the event live and drum up support from your gamer friends. 

P – Perfect Pub Quiz: It’s the old classic, a pub quiz. Host one at home, online, or down your local pub. Charge an entry fee and ask shops in your local community to donate prizes.

Q – Quiet Auction: Ask local businesses to donate items and let people place their bids. If you prefer a less noisy auction, getting people to write down their secret-bid is the right way to go. You can even do it online.

R – Rapid Run: Take part in a local running event or set yourself a running challenge. From big city marathons to local 5k trail races, find a race for you and ask for sponsorship.

S – Scrabble anyone? Gather your word-loving friends and hold a games night. Charge an entry fee and play for prizes. Feel free to play other games, but Scrabble is our favourite.

T – Treasure Hunt: Another amazing one for the whole family to enjoy. Create a treasure hunt in your garden or head out to your local park. You could hide sweets, money, or both! Ask people to donate to enter.

U – Used book sale: All those books sitting on your dusty shelf could be put to good use. Host a book sale and donate the proceeds. Ask friends and family to donate their unwanted books to bolster your collection.

V – Vintage Vinted: Tired of wearing the same thing? Sell your unwanted clothes on Vinted and donate the proceeds.

W – Wacky Wardrobe: A great one to do in your workplace. A bit like a school nonuniform day, but everyone is encouraged to come to work dressed as weirdly and as wacky as possible. Ask for a donation.

X – Merry Xmas – A perfect time of year to host a fundraiser with mince pies and carols to warm everyone’s hearts.

Y – Yes to Yoga: If you know someone who knows their yoga, you could ask them to host a charity yoga class.

Z – Zumba-thon: Find all the energetic people in your life and host a charity Zumba-thon. Keep going until there is only one person left on the dance floor.
