Fundraising Ideas 

Place a STARS Collection Tin

Help us to raise money and awareness by placing a collection tin in your area, such as a local shop, pub, hairdresser, GP surgery or your workplace. It’s a rewarding way to raise money to support people with syncope and reflex anoxic seizures, and it’s simple to do.

Every few months we will get in touch reminding you to empty the collection tin and give you instructions on how to pay the money to us.

Order your collection tin fundraising pack by contacting us via email at fundraising@stars.org.uk or by calling 01789 867 503 and we’ll then send you everything you need to place a tin! 

 

Clothes Swap / Book Swap

Organise a swap shop at home, and invite all your friends and their friends to bring unwanted clothes and/or books. For each swap donate £1 to STARS.
