Fundraising
Fundraising is vital to us in order to continue to support our services users. If you are considering helping us to raise funds to continue our activities in any way we would be delighted to hear from you.
There are many ways to get involved from helping out at one of our fundraising events or providing items for sale. You might be thinking of organising an event or personal challenge that could generate income or sponsorship. Whatever your interest please feel free to discuss your ideas with us at any stage.
We are always grateful to receive donations or legacy gifts.
Events and personal challenges
We are always delighted when someone offers to support Cam-mind through an event or activity they are organising. Perhaps there's a sporting goal you have always wanted to achieve that you could use as an opportunity to support us. If sponsorship is involved you can create a JustGiving page linked to our account. If you need help or advice e.g. on publicising your event or with volunteers to assist at the event please contact us to discuss.
As an example, Ben Chivers decided to support Cam-mind by running the Paris Marathon for us. It's still possible to sponsor him through his JustGiving page.
Mind Matters Poetry Book
A book of poems by the Cam-mind Poetry Group is available for sale for £3 from
the Cam-mind office. Mind Matters was compiled by Gill Drake with illustrations
by Alan Rogerson and Jill Ogilvy.
Design and Production by Jill Ogilvy/Jane Pryor.
