How to organise a fundraiser: a step by step guide

If you’re ready to turn your fundraising ideas into reality, these simple steps might come in handy.

1. Create a plan of action

First things first, what type of event are you planning? Once you’ve decided on a date, start a list of the different things you need to organise. Why not set a target for the amount you want to raise.

2. Set up a JustGiving page

A JustGiving page makes it easy for your friends and family to sponsor you. This link will take you to the JustGiving website where you can set up your page. Personalise your page to tell people your story and why you have chosen to support Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust.

3. Tell us about your event

Get in touch to let us know about the event you’re planning by emailing [email protected]. We love to hear from our supporters and can give you tips to make your event run smoothly.

4. Tell everyone about your event

Use social media to spread the word by creating an event on Facebook or sending some tweets. Ask if you can put up posters at work and email all your colleagues as well as telling family and friends . Your local media might be interested in your fundraiser so it’s always worth contacting them in advance.
