School Fundraising
There are so many ways you can help
There are so many ways you and your school can help support the hospice, from organising your own fundraiser, holding collections at school plays or sports days, or taking part in our school fundraising activities such as Hop To It!, Sunflower Superstars and Claus 4 A Cause.
We would also be delighted to come to your school and talk to you about the hospice and the importance of the work we do here. We can even offer tours of the hospice grounds to show you first-hand all the amazing work that we do! We want you to have a great experience and above all have fun FUNdraising in aid of St Teresa’s Hospice!
Our Events Team would love to hear from you if you’re thinking of fundraising in aid of St Teresa’s. Please email hello@darlingtonhospice.org.uk or ask for the Fundraising Team on 01325 254321.
School Events
Our school events are aimed at children in primary school.
Hop to it!
Hop to it! is an Easter-themed event which takes place before the Easter holidays. It involves a sponsored hop around the playground/school field, and all pupils taking part get an Easter-themed activity booklet and a bunny crown to colour in.
Sunflower Superstars
Sunflower Superstars begins in April and lasts throughout the sunflower growing season. Children participating in the event will get a packet of sunflower seeds to grow, with a ‘Sunflower Diary’ to fill in – so they can measure their flowers each week and see how tall they grow!
Claus 4 a Cause
Claus 4 a Cause is our annual Christmas event. Taking place in December, this is a sponsored run around the playground/ school field. Children who take part get a Santa crown to colour in and wear, a sticker and a bag of magical reindeer food.
If your school would like to participate in any of our school events, please email fundraising@darlingtonhospice.org.uk or ask for the Fundraising Team on 01325 254321.
