Hi, Can anyone offer any advice on fundraising. I'm trying to get electric mobility equipment for my younger twin brothers. I have a fundraising page, but I'm looking for ideas to run local fundraisers. I have added a link to the page {removed by moderator}. thanks in advance for ideas.

Hi @Jen01
Welcome to Scope’s online community!
Have you considered contacting any local businesses for things like raffle prizes, venues to hold fundraisers ect.?

Hi @Jen01
There is a page on fundraising yourself that you may find useful. But first of all check you are claiming all the benefits you are entitled to and take a look at grants, too!
Best of luck, Alex -
Hi all,
I've spoken to some local businesses and waiting for responses. Our twitter page has got some good hits and the fund is growing. The lads are working with CP Sport for a joint fundraiser at their school.From speaking to my Dad, I think they are claiming their entitled benefits.
