A sponsored walk or run is a great way to get your team out and about doing something different and raising money! Not only would it be a great way to support our charity but a fun new activity for team building and socialising. Or, do something a little different and have a go at organising a sponsored dance, hike of even a three legged race! We could help you by creating cobranded flyers, social media posts and provide you Age UK Sheffield vests/hats to wear as well as donation tins. If this sounds like something you’d be keen to get stuck into, please get in touch!
Who doesn’t love a pub quiz?! Could you organise a quiz at your local pub or café? You could write your own questions or download a pub quiz online. We can help you with cobranded flyers and promotion on social media. People could pay a donation in order to take part and have lots of fun for a good cause! We will supply you with a donation bucket and collection tins and support you to set it up. If this is something you’d be interested in, then please get in touch!
A coffee morning is a really lovely way of showing your support and raising money for our charity, as well as being a wonderful excuse for a catch up, a coffee and maybe even a nice slice of cake with friends and colleagues. We would be able to support you with flyers and collection tins, and can send you some of our print materials and leaflets that detail all the services and support we provide in Sheffield. That way, people attending your coffee morning will know exactly what their donation will be supporting as well as being able find out about the support that we offer that may be of help to themselves or their relatives and neighbours. You could ask colleagues and friends if they’d like to bake something or bring some snacks or chocolate treats along. People could either donate if they wish, you could request a suggested donation, or people could pay for a slice cake and a coffee, whatever suits you! If this interests you, please do get in touch with us so that we can help you organise your coffee morning.
We always need volunteers to deliver flyers for us. This can be in specific areas/house to house/in surgeries and pharmacies. Many of the older people that we help/or could be helping do not have internet access and may struggle to get out and about. This means that it can be challenging to ensure that they are aware of the services and support that we could be offering to them. Because of this, delivering flyers to homes, GP surgeries, community centres and libraries can be paramount in enabling access and awareness of our support and services to the people who often need it the most. Your team, organisation or office could volunteer a day in which you deliver our flyers to specific locations. This could even be organised as a group walk or even a sponsored walk! If this sounds like something that you and your team would like to help with, please get in touch!
