Fundraise via your clubs and community groups

Are you a member of a football club, walking group, golf club or dance class?

Golfers on a golf courseIf you'd like your club or group to help raise vital funds for Sense then we want to hear from you now!

Here are just a few of the current groups we are working with:

Golf clubs

Are you a captain or member of a golf club? Every year we are supported by golf clubs across the country and we are looking for more clubs to adopt us as their charity of the year.

By choosing Sense as your 'Captain's charity' you will enable us to help deafblind children and their families.

Sense is a beacon of hope, freeing children from a world of isolation and helping them to learn to build relationships with their families.

Please contact your local fundraiser for more information about fundraising at your group or club on 0845 127 0069 or email community.team@sense.org.uk.

University groups and societies

If you are currently studying at a university that run charitable events throughout the year or have a RAG (Raise and Give) society we would love to work with you on nominating Sense as their charity of choice or organising a ‘RAG Raid’ street collection in the city centre.

If you are not a member of the society ask at the Student Guild who this year’s Committee Chair is and enquire with them how you can nominate Sense. If you are a member of the society looking for a charity to work with please email our team at community.team@sense.org.uk to find out about how we can support you with fundraising in the coming term or book a collection for you.

For RAG societies that we work with we can provide: 

  • Professional fundraising support and assistance with regional PR as well as an article in the Sense newsletter and website with updates on amount raised
  • Street collection permits in major UK cities plus fancy dress, prizes/certificates for collectors and Sense buckets, banners, stickers and tips to help you make a bigger impact for our cause

  • Branded template Sense events with posters, fliers and packs ready for you to use to promote them including:
    • Our Ditch n Switch Fashion Fundraiser, Tastes Sensational foodie fundraiser, Sense on Ice, Blaze Fire Walk and our Vision5k running event
  • And if you fancy taking on an international trek or cycle to Machu Picchu or from London to Paris (see Events page for more details),  we can organise these for your students and support your fundraising. 
  • T-shirts, thank you letters and certificates for individuals who have raised funds individually as well as a thank you to the committee itself.
