Helping us raise funds
Fundraising for a charitable cause can be very rewarding and can fit in well with your own lifestyle. Here's some ideas:
Could you help Changes Bristol qualify for the Christmas Challenge 2018?
If we can raise £1000 in pledges by 31st August 2018 we will be able to take part in a brilliant online fundraising campaign The Christmas Challenge where online donations during the Christmas period will be doubled, possibly even quadrupled! This is a great opportunity for Changes Bristol to gain new supporters and raise funds needed to develop more support groups.
Would your employer pledge to donate £100 to help Changes Bristol get through to the campaign? Or would you be willing to make a pledge yourself?
You could help us turn £1000 in to £4000! See here for more details
Run for Bristol's mental wellbeing
We still have some limited charity places in the classic runs through our beautiful city: Great Bristol 10km and the Bristol Half Marathon - We'd love you to join our team!
We are organising training runs and offering fundraising advice to give you the best chance possible of smashing your targets - whether on the route or in the bank!
Or try something a little unusual and run on the closed motorway over the iconic 'old' Severn Bridge!
Buy your own place and simply let us know you are fundraising for us and we will send you out your running vest and fundraising pack!

- If you work in an office or buidling where there are a lot of people why not host a Mend for Good event - our unique sewing fundraising initiative.
As a small charity we are entirely reliant on donations, gifts and grants. Any fund-raising events or sponsorship you can undertake will directly help support people with mental health problems. Get in touch to discuss your ideas.
