How do I book an activity for charity?

Organising a dare-devil activity to raise money for charity is really easy. You just buy your voucher online and once you’ve got that, you can book in your date with your supplier.

What fundraising ideas raise the most money?

Parachuting and wing walking are by far our most popular activities to raise funds for charity. It’s that 'once-in-a-lifetime' thing and the high-thrills factor of doing something crazy that makes them the perfect choice. Let’s face it, it’s never going to be difficult to get people to sponsor you to fall out of a plane, or stand on the top wing of a biplane is it?

Do you offer a discount for charity fundraisers?

If there is a group of you wanting to do an activity for charity, please do get in touch with us, as we may be able to negotiate a discount for you. Contact us by email on [email protected] or call us during normal office hours on 01959 578100.

How do I start raising funds?

There are loads of fundraiser platforms online these days. They are really simple to set up and you can easily share the link to your fundraising page through all your social media channels and email contacts too. Anyone who wants to sponsor you then just clicks on the link to donate quickly and safely online.

Can you go wingwalking for charity?

Yes! And lots of you do just that. Our wingwalking suppliers are very used to having wing walkers for charity and will take good care of you. It’s a great choice because you can invite friends and family (many of whom will have sponsored you, we hope!) to watch your aerial antics. We've even written a blog article about wing walking for charity you can read.

What are the best fundraising hosting sites?

We can’t recommend one above another, but to give you an idea, have a look at sites such as JustGiving, GoFundMe, GoGetFunding, GoldenGiving, Givey and Wonderful. They all work in a similar way, facilitating online donations in exchange for a small percentage. The money is then transferred to the charity of your choice once you’ve done the challenge.

What other activities make good fundraisers?

A bungee jump. A walk up and over the roof of the O2. A no-gravity flight thrill. All of these experiences have made it to our fundraising activities page. You’ll need to be brave, but go on, you can do it - it’s for charity after all! You can read more about the best activities for charity fundraising in our blog.

Are all fundraising ideas scary?

No! You can still bake cakes, do a sponsored run or wash cars to raise money for the charity close to your heart. Some of our fundraising experiences aren’t too scary; take a look at the F1 Pitstop Challenge or perhaps Coasteering for a new take on charity fundraisers.

We’re a charity and we’d like to organise a fundraising event…

Great! Many of our suppliers will be able to organise an exclusive session or opening for you. Minimum numbers may well apply, but groups can also often benefit from a discount. Do get in touch with us if you are a charity group event organiser.
