Social events

Almost anything you enjoy doing in your spare time can be a fantastic way to fundraise and show your support.

Whether you raise £5 or £500, you can make a difference by holding your own fundraising event.

Fundraising ideas

We have already seen people organise:

Lots of people also hold a Party for Parkinson's

To boost your fundraising, why not hold a collection, organise a raffle or have a cake sale alongside the main event?

Jan Sopher's coffee morning

Everyone loves a sale, whether it's cakes, plants or clothes. It's a simple and fun way to fundraise.

Get your friends together and ask them to bake cakes, donate their unwanted belongings or just their time.

You could even get a few stalls together and turn your sale into a fete.

Whether you're buying or selling, eBay for Charity is an easy way to support us.

When selling unwanted items, choose the 'advanced sell' option. You can then donate between 10% and 100% of the proceeds of any sale.

If you are a UK tax payer, Gift Aid is automatically added to the amount you donate.

Happy eBaying!

Enjoy performing? Organise a variety show. Enjoy socialising? Have a Party for Parkinson's
