Ideas and Inspiration

Take a look at some of our fundraising ideas and the events you can get involved with, or get inspired and come up with your own life-saving fundraiser!

  • Overseas Adventures

    Combine the trip of a life-time with fundraising to help animals in need! From trekking in Costa Rica to taking on Kilimanjaro there are so many adventures waiting to happen.

    Adding a fundraising target to your expedition can give it more meaning, and will certainly help push you towards the summit of that mountain you always dreamed of climbing…

  • Fundraise in Memory

    Fundraising in memory of a loved one is a special way to honour the life of someone who was passionate about animals and the environment. Funds raised in celebration of a life enable us to continue our work building a better future for animals in need.

    You can create a fundraising page in memory on JustGiving or if you are planning to collect donations at a funeral and would like some donation envelopes, please get in touch, we would be happy to help arrange this for you.

  • Donate your birthday

    This year, use your special day to support our work. Instead of cards or gifts, set up a Facebook birthday fundraising page and ask your loved ones to make a donation. There is no better gift than knowing that your birthday has saved the life of an animal in need.

    You can register now and we will send you a reminder to set up your fundraising page when your birthday is coming up.

  • Fundraise at school

    Education is at the heart of our work, we believe it is the key to creating lasting change and a better future for animals, humans and the planet. Inspiring the younger generation is vital if we are to have hope for endangered species and their precious habitats.

    There are so many ways that you can educate and inspire children at school whilst raising the vital funds we need to continue our work.
