Fundraising - why we need you to keep going
So that we can offer services that statutory bodies do not support, we rely hugely on fundraising. We have a waiting list of carers seeking support we cannot give without additional funds.
You can make a huge difference to people struggling to cope with the effects of caring for disabled or ill loved-ones. 'I had no help or anyone to talk to or turn to. I was at my wit's end. It was the lowest point of my life until I contacted CLASP.'
We need:
£25,000 per year to run a Counselling Service
£10,000 per year to run an Advice and Benefit Service
£1,500 per year for training courses
£500 to organise a free Carers Therapy day
From recent fundraising events we have raised:
Virgin London Marathon £7,051
How you can help:
-
Become a volunteer fundraiser. We need help to run events so please come and join in - it's fun.
-
Help us at a 'tin rattling' or 'bag packing' event at Sainsbury's in Oadby
- Organise an event with your friends or family. It could simply be a meal or a party where you ask for donations.
- Why not ask friends to sponsor you to achieve a lifetime's ambition such as completing a marathon, skydiving or abseiling?
-
Leave a gift in your will. Legacies make huge difference to charities. Please ask your solicitor to include a legacy or donation to CLASP in your will or talk to Pamela Thompson about how to leave a lasting gift.
-
Ask to be added to our events list, this way you will automatically be invited to future fundraising events.
