Community

What we do
The  fundraising team at Farleigh Hospice raises vital funds by organising events throughout the year and enables organisations, groups and individuals to fundraise on the charity's behalf. Events organised include coffee mornings, store collections, trekking the Himalayas, parachute jumps and fire walks!

How we do it
The fundraising team offers practical support by supplying guidelines, promotional materials (eg sponsorship forms & posters), giving advice and helping with publicity. The team also builds relationships with the local community by attending events, giving talks and organising cheque presentations.
 
How you can help
Farleigh Hospice relies on the local community for financial and practical support. Whether you are part of an organisation, church, club or an interested individual there is a part you can play in helping Farleigh Hospice continue to care.

What sort of things can you do to raise money?
