Fundraising

Over the years, the trustees, staff, service users and supporters of East Berkshire Mind have organised fundraising events so that we can enhance our services. Examples of events include:

• A supporter of East Berkshire Mind ran the Reading half marathon in 2006 raising £142.50
• In 2005, the trustees arranged a quiz night, jumble sale, and theatre evening raising a total of £4640.
• The trustees also arranged two high profile tennis events in 2005, one held at the Masters Tennis Challenge at the Albert Hall and the other featuring Pat Cash as a guest speaker at a local health club. These events combined raised nearly £40000.

There are so many things you can do to raise money for East Berkshire Mind. You could do a sponsored silence – bound to raise some money if you are a bit of a chatterbox! Or perhaps you could organise a party or dance, donating the entry fees raised to us. We welcome all donations, whether big or small, made through your fundraising efforts.

The important thing to remember is to have fun whilst raising money for a good cause. For more information and ideas about fundraising, click here for a fundraising pack or contact us at the head office.

East Berkshire Mind wishes to thank all our supporters for their contributions.
