Whatever you decide to do, please get in touch with your Regional Fundraiser who will be able to advise on whether your fundraising will require any local authority permissions, or if there is anything else you need to do to keep your event safe. They will also provide you with support and guidance with your fundraising.

New recruit or apprentice fundraiser

Whether you are taking your first steps into the fire service as an apprentice, or you’re a new recruit, fundraising is a great way to get to know people and form great team bonds.

Senior leadership challenges

Just because you’re the Chief, doesn’t get you off the hook! Why not take on a Chief’s Challenge? Showing support for your charity will encourage others in your service to do the same. Or how about these other ideas:

  • Jail ‘n’ Bail or ‘On the Run
  • Station to Station challenges
  • Show you’re still (fire)fighting fit by taking on the same challenge as the new recruits. See who can raise more – you or them!

Auctions and raffles 

Everyone loves a good ‘Knees Up’ and there are plenty of things to celebrate. A milestone birthday, retirement, a station anniversary, getting a new station… Celebrate with colleagues, friends and family while asking for a suggested donation.

  • Ticketed on-station events – invite your retired colleagues or the local community
  • Auctions and raffles – raffling items you have had donated or an auction of skills
  • Donations in lieu of presents

Bucket list challenge 

Always wanted to try something new, but never got around to it? Whether it’s abseiling, sky diving, bungee jumping or ziplining, get it booked and conquer your fears. Or how about the ideas below:

  • Go caving
  • Catch a wave surfing
