At Vine Trust, the work we do across the world would not be possible without the generosity, creativity and dedication of our incredible community of supporters. We are always deeply grateful for the many ways people raise funds and awareness for our projects. Every event organised, every mile run and every pound donated helps us continue our mission.
There are many ways you can get involved in supporting Vine Trust, and fundraising can be both meaningful and great fun. Whether you’re an individual, a family, a community group, a school or a workplace team, there are opportunities for everyone to make a difference.
If you enjoy pushing yourself physically, challenge events are another great way to support us. You could take part in a run, triathlon, hike or even an abseil challenge. Many supporters choose to fundraise while training for a major event, turning a personal goal into something that helps others. We have been inspired by supporters running marathons, taking part in Kiltwalks across Scotland, while some have completed epic cycling challenges in support of Vine Trust.
Community events are a fantastic way to bring people together while raising vital funds. Supporters across the UK have organised all sorts of creative events in their communities. You might host a bake sale, organise a quiz night, plan a disco or put on a carol service. A community sports day is another great way to gather friends and neighbours while supporting a good cause. If you would like to use the Vine Trust Barge to host your event, please get in touch via email.
