- Fundraising: Whether you are an individual, a group of friends, a church, business, school or other organisation there are loads of ways you can raise money and we hope that we are able to keep the fun-in-fundraising. Recently we have appreciated one family who hosted a nearly new sale at their home with tea and cake, raising in the region of £800. In the spirit of Captain Tom a lady in her 90’s completed a walking challenge raising more than £1,000. We had runners in the Bath Hath, each aiming to raise £500. One of our supporters is considering inviting friends for a meal or mulled wine near Christmas, another is planning to ask for donations via Facebook for their birthday, and someone is thinking about how to involve their family by completing a reverse advent calendar – donating £1 per day throughout Advent. These are just a handful of ideas, there are plenty more, and we always love to hear about the creativity you bring. Our team our happy to support you in developing ideas and cheering you on, get in touch to let us know your plans or to chat through ideas info@lifeprojectbath.org.uk / 07708 217901

We often develop partnerships with such groups, as we find ways of working together – we are able to provide speakers to talk about the Life Project but also advice and guidance about the benefits of becoming more accessible and we welcome volunteers who may join us as part of a working party, to help out for a day or getting involved in the longer term.
