Whatever you are doing, wherever you are doing it, whatever amount you are aiming to raise, we are incredibly grateful to have you on our team.

Find out how to fundraise for HEH Mind and support mental health within Hampshire by contacting our Fundraising Team or reading the fundraising options below.  

In person fundraising

Bake sale

Cakes and biscuits can be a great way to involve more people in your fundraising. You could celebrate bakers achievements with awards like ‘most creative’. 

Car wash

Whether at work or at home, there’s likely more than a few cars near to you. Hosting this as a team can help to clean more cars, but also to keep the energy up throughout your activity. 

Dinner party

Bring your family and friends together for a dinner party and raise funds for HEH Mind. This could also be an opportunity to share information about local services and support. 

Quiz night

Bring your friends or colleagues together for a themed quiz and raise funds for HEH Mind. Picking a popular theme can help increase interest and lead to more people wanting to take part. Quizzes were big in 2021, add something to an in person quiz to make this a successful event.

Sponsored silence

Decide how long you’re going to stay quiet and ask people to sponsor you. Maybe during your silence, you can draw attention to the stigma and missed conversations about mental health. 

Virtual fundraising

easyfundraising

easyfundraising turns your everyday online shopping into free donations. Just start your online shopping first at easyfundraising.org, then shop as normal. The retailers will then make a small donation.

Game streaming

Online game streaming can be a great way to raise funds for HEH Mind, while playing your favourite games. Twitch, Mixer and YouTube are all useful tools/ platforms to share your gameplay with supporters and to encourage them to donate. 

This could be an individual or team challenge. 

Online gig

If you have a musical talent, take it online to a virtual gig through Facebook or Instagram live. Set up a giving page so that those who join your gig can make a donation. Listening to live music is also a great way for others to look after their wellbeing.

Online tutorials

Share your skills with others through online tutorials. You could hold a cooking/ foreign language/ flower arranging class. Ask for a donation in exchange for sharing your skills, which can be donated on your giving page.

Virtual ball

Socially distancing yourself but still want to connect with your friends? Enjoy yourselves at your own virtual ball and support HEH Mind by donating your Ball Ticket profits.

7k in 7 days

Take on a 7k in 7 days challenge to help you build exercise into your new daily routine. Start the day with a jog around the living room or dance around the kitchen making lunch.

Celebration giving

Giving through your celebration is a great way to support us and to help make more people aware of our charity. Whether you are getting married, celebrating a birthday or commemorating an anniversary, we would love to be part of your special occasion.

Donations in lieu of gifts

Ask your friends to make a donation to HEH Mind instead of wedding or birthday gifts. How many socks and toasters do you really need?

You can do this by setting up an online fundraising page and include the link to this in your invitations.

Don’t forget to let us know about your celebrations.

Party Time

If you are having a reception, birthday party or celebration, you can easily add some extra touches.

• Use HEH Mind coloured balloons (blue, yellow, purple).

• Ask us for some collection tins. These are great for placing next to a bar or buffet for loose change.

• Raise some extra money by asking people to guess the weight of the cake, the winner receives a small prize. Just remember to weigh the cake before you eat it.

Joining an event?

If you are looking for something different, have you considered taking part in an organised public event? Events such as Great South Run, London to Brighton Bike Ride, London Marathon or a trek aboard can be a great way to fundraise while also undertaking a personal challenge.

For these public events you will need to pay for and book your own place on an event. Once your place is booked, we can support with setting up a fundraising page or providing you with sponsorship forms.
