Fundraise Your Way For The EPT

When it comes to fundraising, there really are no rules. You might want to keep things small and simple with something close to home, or you might prefer to go all-out with a big community event. The beauty of fundraising your way is that it’s flexible – you choose what works for you, your lifestyle, and your creativity. Whatever you decide, you’ll be making a meaningful difference and we’ll be here to cheer you on.

All you need is an idea, and together we can turn it into something incredible.

Brilliant! If you’ve got your fundraising idea ready, you can get started straight away. Set up your personalised fundraising page using our bespoke link, and you’ll be ready to share your story, track donations, and kick off your challenge in just a few clicks. Once you’re signed up, our Fundraising Coordinator, Kerri, will be in touch to offer support and arrange your complimentary EPT t-shirt or vest to wear with pride.

Not sure what to do yet? Don’t worry – we’ve got you covered. From bake sales and quiz nights to charity football matches, skill swaps, or even daring personal challenges, the possibilities are endless. Scroll through our ideas below to spark your imagination, then make it your own.

Here are just a few tried-and-tested (and fun!) ways you could get involved:

• Bake sale – because cake makes everything better.

• Charity night – live music, a raffle, or even a silent disco.

• Golf day – tee off with friends or colleagues for a good cause.

• Quiz night – test everyone’s knowledge while raising pounds.

• Charity football match – friendly competition with impact.

• Learn a new skill – from knitting to DJ-ing, ask for sponsorship as you master it.

• Guinness World Record attempt – go for the extraordinary and make history while fundraising!

• Personal challenge – climb, swim, walk, run, or do something completely unique.

• Something else entirely – your imagination is the only limit!

Behind every challenge is a story of courage, love, and determination. Our incredible fundraisers take on many different events and challenges not only to raise vital funds, but also to honour their own experiences or support someone they care about. From first-time runners lacing up their trainers to families hosting cosy tea parties, each story is a reminder of the strength of our community and the difference one person can make. Explore our Fundraiser Stories to find inspiration for your own challenge – and see the many ways people have turned their passion into support for The EPT.
