Sponsored
Parachute Jumps
 Both
of us have always wanted to do a skydive but we have been
too chicken. When we saw the advert, we decided that being
able to raise money and awareness for such a good cause was
just the 'push' we needed!
Jenny & Laura
You can help us by making an exhilarating 10,000 feet freefall
sponsored parachute jump! No experience is needed and you
can jump for free, if you raise the minimum sponsorship.
To request an information pack email Alice
Seferiades or call 020 8426 0929 or book
online.
We
want to thank everyone at Mind in Harrow for giving us the
opportunity to do the sky dive. We had an amazing time and
were so pleased with the money we were able to raise.
Jenny and Laura.

Fundraising
Tips
|
|
|
| |
|
Give
yourself lots of time to plan the event and contact possible
sponsors. |
|
|
|
|
|
Approach
as many people as possible for sponsorship (go through
your address book, family, friends, work contacts, colleagues,
suppliers). |
|
|
|
|
|
Contact
local press and let them know what you are doing. |
|
|
|
|
|
Following
up sponsorship pledges can take time, so why not use an
online
sponsorship form? The pledges are made and you can
collect the donations once you have completed your challenge.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thank
your sponsors - you might want to do another event in
a few years time and ask them for support again! |
And of course, we are here to help you in any way we can,
so for more support, contact Alice
Seferiades on 020 8426 0929.
Charity Gig - A Huge Success!
Over 150 people came to the Bush Hall in West London
on 27 April 2006 to hear ten fantastic, up-and-coming artists,
one already signed by Sony, play an eclectic mix of music,
with influences such as Jeff Buckley, Kris Kristofferson,
Madonna and Blondie, ranging from “post punk” to “the blues”,
and a man who has his own eclectic mix within his music!
We would like to thank all the artists who are
generously giving their time for free, to help raise serveral
hundred pounds for Mind in Harrow.
