Why fundraise for Young Epilepsy?
Wanted, stars to help us shine
Young Epilepsy looks after and helps young people with severe epilepsy and other neurological conditions. We provide our young people with a wide range of specialist educational, medical and residential services which help them to get the most out of life. Our fundraisers play a huge role in helping us to provide the best possible care for the youngsters here and we are always looking for fundraising stars to help us shine...
The work of Young Epilepsy is special and we want everyone to know about it. If you decide to fundraise for us we won’t just take your money and run. You will have the chance to see first hand how your fundraising will make a difference to the lives of the young people in our care.
We’re here to help!
We love getting to know our fundraisers and are always excited to hear about your fundraising ideas and events. We provide friendly advice and have an extensive range of materials to support you which include; official sponsor forms, collecting tins, posters, balloons, stickers and t-shirts.
It has never been easier!
If you want to help us but worry about how to raise funds then the good news is fundraising has never been easier! Online giving and internet sponsorship pages are an increasingly popular way for you to fundraise for Young Epilepsy. We can help you to set up your own personalised online sponsor form, then when people want to sponsor you they can simply visit your page and make an online payment. This means you spend less time chasing sponsorship and more time focusing on your event.
You decide!
Here at Young Epilepsy we know that not everyone has time to train for a marathon or spend hours planning a glitzy bash. Fundraising isn’t just about being super fit or making grand gestures. So if cycling across continents or throwing yourself out of a plane all sound a bit too much for you, then there are still plenty of ways that you can help...and guess what, you might even have a great time whilst doing so!
It’s fun!
Fundraising is ultimately about having fun. If people are having a good time then the event is already a success. And if everyone enjoys themselves then they will be more generous and you will raise more funds, so everyone is happy!
