Community Fundraising

There are many ways you can raise funds for us in the community, whether they be sponsored events or buying a community lottery ticket.  It all helps us raise the vital funds we need to continue our service.  It doesn't matter how much you raise, from a few pounds to much larger sums, your donation is important to us and will always be put to great use.

Do you have a fundraising idea?

We can provide sponsorship forms and branded merchandise to support your event and you can also set up your own fundraising pages through our website. 

We love hearing about what our supporters are doing for us and it helps us to offer any support and advice you need. We can also help publicise your event through our social media pages and via our website.  To speak to one of our fundraising team please get in touch.

    Litter Pick - Saturday 14th May

    On Saturday 15th May we held a now annual litter pick at the trust. We hosted 34 young people and families out on the water and landside on the tow path collecting an interesting mixture of rubbish including a tv, lots of bottles and cans, a lampshade and the usual shopping trolley pulled from the water! We were fortunate to have the Canal and River Trust loan us some canoes for the pick with their instructor Andy Oughton, and we look forward to having them with us again.

    Volunteer

    People volunteer for so many different reasons and each reason is unique to the individual. For some it is the sense of offering back to their community, others volunteer to boost their CV, whilst for many it is about the companionship and friendship.
