Fundraising and Events

   

Please support the work of the Dorset Blind Association by raising funds and awareness of our charity. Any money you raise for us really does make a huge difference to the lives of blind and partially sighted people in Dorset.


How your money can help - A little money can go a long way.

• £8.00 can support transport costs of two Home Visits to an isolated elderly person.
• £25.00 buys a large print Scrabble game to help a child improve language skills.
• £500 would help support our sight equipment service which makes our resource centre mobile and community based.

So anything you want to do, from organising a coffee morning with friends to running a marathon, will make a difference.

We can provide you with a Fundraisers guide which contains ideas for events, budget/planning forms, sponsor forms, paying in forms and a fact sheet about the charity. We can also help with posters, leaflets and other publicity material.

Events
We have a number of fundraising events which we plan across the county every year.
We are always looking for volunteers to help. So if you fancy giving us a hand or would like more information on our current events, please get in touch with the Community Fundraising Manager.
