Here just a few suggestions:

1. Sponsored silence or sponsored standing barefoot in a basin of baked beans
2. Turn bronze and silver into gold for JoLt. Collect small denomination loose change from your friends – this soon mounts up.
3. Easter egg hunt, Treasure hunt
4. Fashion show, Trivia quiz, Tombola;
5. Non-uniform day or Fancy Dress day at school;
6. Job Swap at work
7. Car boot sale, Jumble sale, Book stall, Cake stall
8. Mulled wine and mince pie evening, etc.

Whatever you choose, give yourself plenty of time to organise and publicise the event. And please let us know what you are planning to do. Download our Fundraising Agreement which you need to complete and send to us before you start any kind of fundraising.

Please make sure that you are fully insured if your activity involves risk or members of the public. You should make clear that you (and not JoLt) are organising the event.

Good luck!

City of Norwich Half Marathon (Sunday, 2nd December 2007)

Michael Townsend has taken part in the Marathon in aid of JoLt. He writes:

'I am 21, a recently graduated University of Southampton student, now living back in Norfolk. I ran a half marathon in the New Forest in Summer 2005, and am using the City of Norwich Half Marathon to get a bit fitter again! But if I can raise money for an inspirational charity such as JoLt in the process, then it makes my efforts all the more worthwhile.’
