Fundraising is a fantastic way to support Trinity Hospice, your local charity.
Whether you decide to organise your own event, fundraise at work or take part in one of our regular planned events, there really is something for everyone:
- Take part in one of our annual fundraising events such as our 10k Fun Run, illumathon Ladies Memory Walk, Colour Splash, the summer Bike Ride or Light up a Life
- Organise your own event in aid of Trinity Hospice or Brian House Children’s Hospice – you probably have loads of ideas.
Fundraise at work
By getting involved with Trinity Hospice and Brian House Children’s Hospice you and your company can make a real difference to our patients and their families.
Here are some of the ways you can join our team:
Event fundraising 
Getting your colleagues involved and working together on a fundraising project is great fun for staff, and our fundraising team has the experience and resources you need to maximise your income and get the most from your event. Ask us for a Fundraising Pack full of inspirational ideas.
Overseas challenge
If you and your colleagues are looking for an escape from the office why not try something different with one of our new and exciting overseas challenge events? For more information call us on 01253 359362. 
Sponsor us
How would you like to see your company logo alongside Trinity or Brian House at one of our events? The cost of staging our annual events has risen over the years and we are always looking for corporate supporters who are able to help through sponsorship opportunities.
Charity of the Year
Selecting Trinity Hospice as your Charity of the Year is a great way to unite staff and get them working together, whilst making a difference to many local families. If your organisation has a matched giving scheme, you can help raise even more for hospice care in Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre.
For more information about supporting our work, or to arrange a visit please contact our Corporate Fundraiser, Janet Atkins on 01253 359387 or email janet.atkins@trinityhospice.co.uk
Remember that because we are a local charity, money raised for us stays right here on the Fylde Coast, helping local people.
Fundraise at school
At Trinity Hospice we believe anyone of any age can get involved and help support our work.
We work with many local schools to not only help raise much needed funds for Trinity or Brian House, but we also help educate children and teenagers about the work we do at the hospice by visiting classes and presenting in assemblies.
