Set up online fundraising
Setting up a JustGiving page or a Giving.gg page will make your fundraising simple and allows people to donate to your cause quickly and easily.
Once you’ve set up your page, you can share the link with friends, family, colleagues, businesses and us here at Guernsey Mind and start your fundraising journey.
Tell your story
Share your event on social media (make sure you tag Guernsey Mind) – produce posters – contact the local media channels (press, tv, radio).
The more people you can tell about your event, the more support you will get.
We can also share details of your fund-raising on the Guernsey Mind website and social media channels.
Do the paperwork
Depending on the size and nature of your event, you may need to get various permissions and fill in some paperwork.
For instance, if you are playing music of using a microphone outdoors, you will need a PA licence. Full details about holding an event in Guernsey can be found at gov.gg
In addition, you should complete a risk assessment for your event. We can help you with this at Guernsey Mind and have some forms you can use. Contact us at [email protected] or call 01481 722959
Send us your money!
Once you have finished your fund raising, you can drop off any cash to us at Guernsey Mind. We are located opposite the Fire Station: Guernsey Mind, Lions Mind Centre, Town Arsenal, St Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 1UW
If anyone gives you a cheque, please ask them to make it payable to Guernsey Mind.
Please contact us on 01481 722959 or email [email protected] for details of our online banking details.
We also have a giving.gg page and a JustGiving page.
