Get Involved

There are so many ways you can get involved with fundraising for Red Balloon Fundraising, from organising your own event to joining in with someone elses.

Click on the sections we've outlined below to get some ideas, and you can also visit our What's On page to see the types of fundraising activities other people are doing for the Appeal.

We also have a Fundraising Ideas Poster which you can download to help with your planning. In particular, visit our Useful Tools section below to see what you may need to kickstart your fundraising.  If you have any queries, then please email the Appeal Team at red.balloon@bch.nhs.uk- we'd love to hear your ideas and help in any way we can.

We strongly recommend that when you are doing any fundraising event or activity it is really important that you, and your fellow fundraisers, are as prepared as possible.

Important notice on the donation of toys

We are very grateful to those who bring toys and gifts for the children but because of the necessity to fight against infections, we have very strict rules on what we are able to receive. In particular, we can not accept second hand toys, nor cuddly toys. We do have examples of what we can receive - download the guidelines here.
