Thank you so much for considering fundraising for Adferiad! We would love to hear your plans! From climbing Pen-Y-Fan to holding an office bake sale, whatever you decide to do to raise money for us, we will be there every step of the way. Every pound you raise will help us continue to be there for people across Wales who are struggling with their mental health, substance use (or other addictions) and their families too.
Could pay for a counselling session for someone affected by substance use
Could help us with seeds and gardening equipment for our gardening projects across Wales.
Could fund a short break for a carer of someone with a physical disability.
Here are some tried and tested ways to fundraise, either with us or an organisation of your choice
Movement for Good is Benefact Groups annual programme of giving that anyone can get involved in, and again this year will be donating over £1 million to charities and good causes nominated by you. You can nominate Adferiad to win £1000 in one of their daily prize draws until the 19th of December.
From park runs, and mountain climbs to team walks, and sports days, you can raise money for Adferiad by taking part in all kinds of active events throughout the year. We are so grateful to our fundraisers who have supported us doing activities like:
Asking for sponsors for a challenge you wanted to take on is a great way to raise money! It could be anything from growing a moustache, to completing a sky dive. Fundraising is a great way to test yourself and have fun at the same time. Examples of other activities could include:
Signing up for a marathon or testing your endurance is not the only way to raise money for us! There are many ways to fundraise, whatever your interests, there are ways to get involved and help support some of the seldom heard communities in Wales.
Asking for donations instead of gifts for your wedding, birthday, or other special occasion is a simple but incredibly effective way to support charity. Ways to support us include:
Fundraising is the perfect excuse to get your friends and family together! Something simple like a family BBQ or Quiz Night can go a long way. Other Examples include:
“Once we decided that this year’s challenge would be a big one, we thought it would be a good idea to do a fundraiser. We were sure we’d get some good support and we were right with already raising almost £2500 prior to starting the event. We wanted to choose a local charity to ensure that 100% of the funds went to good use. So we thought we’d do it for Adferiad and the deciding factor was that we have experience of people close to us that have had help from Adferiad in the past so we wanted to give something back.”
“This fundraiser will be great for the guys to get out into the fresh air, reap the benefits of getting active and of course this then has a knock on effect and improves their mental wellbeing and outlook on life.”
