Why Fundraise?

Because we need you to!

Fundraising gets you out and about, being part of your local community and it can be a great way to have fun and make friends.

We don’t receive any government or NHS funding so rely on donations, small grants and amazing people like you who fundraise.

Fundraising can be simple – and we can help support you! Here are some ideas:
