Fundraising Events
The Trust has to generate all its own funds to make a difference in the lives of young children, including those with special educational needs and/or who are disadvantaged. The more we raise, the more children we can reach, and the more our coaches can inspire!
Almost half of our income comes in the form of grants, primarily from trusts and foundations, and only 20% comes from fees – we keep charges as low as possible so there are no barriers to participation.
It means that we have to raise the remainder – over 30 per cent – ourselves through fundraising events and our Friends of Scheme.
We like to put the ‘fun’ in fundraising so those taking part get to experience a great event along with that ‘feel good’ rush from helping others.
Here are our main fundraising event this year:
Belvoir Castle Dinner with England Cricket greats Sir Alastair Cook and David Gower OBE
