Community fundraising
This page is free to all
Community fundraising brings together lots of different people with a huge variety of activities, that can present varied risks and challenges.
If you encourage volunteers to carry out fundraising on your behalf in the community you must make sure that they know what you expect of them. You must come up with a good way of communicating this, either in person or in an information pack or online exercise.
The information should include:
- whether the event is being co-run between your team and the volunteers or purely by the volunteers (on behalf of, or in aid of, are the fundraising terms for each)
- contact details for advice or if they have problems
- instructions on how to do a risk assessment and planning
- advice on how to make events safer and more inclusive
- information to put on publicity materials.
