Set up your fundraising page

We had such a great time playing games with our friends and raising awareness for Dementia UK. Everyone was so willing to donate for such an important cause. We all can’t wait to take part again next year

  • If you have a personal connection to dementia, telling people about it will bring your reason for fundraising to life
  • You can also organise extra fundraising activities, such as selling refreshments, organising a raffle or setting up a wheel of fortune. If you decide to hold a raffle, please get in touch so we can send you a letter of authority to help you source prizes
  • Share your fundraising page with friends and family – you’ll be surprised how generous some people can be.
