Ho Chi Minh to Angkor Wat Cycle

You’ll get:

• a dedicated member of the Fundraising Team to support you to the finish line and beyond
• training plans and support to help you get event-ready
• a fundraising guide, as well as fundraising advice, hints and tips
• an exclusive Dementia UK cycling jersey

Every penny you raise will help our dementia specialist Admiral Nurses provide a lifeline to more families facing dementia – and we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Fundraising ideas

Organising fundraising activities alongside your main challenge will help you smash your goal. Here are some ideas:

• host a quiz
• arrange a raffle
• hold a car boot sale
• organise a bake sale at home, at work or in your community
• create a sponsored playlist, where supporters donate to add their choice of song to your cycle soundtrack

Your fundraising welcome pack

Once you’ve signed up, we’ll send you a fundraising welcome pack that’s full of advice on how to meet – and beat – your target.

Enthuse

Setting up an Enthuse page is a great way to fundraise online. Share your link with family, friends and colleagues, and watch the donations roll in.

You can use Enthuse to explain why you’re taking on your challenge for Dementia UK, keep track of how much you’ve raised, and even share your training progress using Strava so your supporters can see how well you’re doing. The more you update and share your page, the more donations you’ll receive.

Gift Aid

If your supporters are UK taxpayers and their donation is voluntary (not proceeds of a sale), we can claim an extra 25p for every £1 donated – at no extra cost to them. Make sure they fill in the Gift Aid form in your fundraising pack or tick the correct boxes if they’re donating online.

Sending in your donations

If you’re fundraising through Enthuse, your donations will automatically come to us. If you’ve got cash to pay in, you can do this online, by phone, by bank transfer or by post.

Pay in your donations

Every three minutes, someone in the UK develops dementia. Too often, families struggle to find support, leaving them feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and alone.

When you support our charity, you’re helping us grow the number of specialist dementia nurses. With your help, no one will face dementia alone.
