Community groups

Valley Hospital Charity works with many local clubs and groups who actively fundraise and donate generously to the Hospital Charity. We can provide community groups with fundraising ideas, advice and materials, as well as someone to come and speak about the Charity to your club or group. You are also given the chance to visit our Hospitals to meet staff and see where your money goes.

Top fundraising ideas for community groups include:

  • Sponsored events: walk, cycle, run, swim, canoe
  • Quiz night
  • Race night
  • Carol concert
  • Golf day
  • Community collections

If you are a club, religious group, sports team, or another community group, and would like to fundraise for us, please get in touch.
