The majority of our fundraisers exceed their target, the earlier you start and share your fundraising page the word, the better – don’t be shy!
We are here to support you with your fundraising as much as we can. If you're worried get in touch, we are more than happy to talk through ideas with you!
Many employers in the UK now offer ‘matched-funding’ programmes where they match employee fundraising efforts, usually up to a set amount. Ask your line manager or HR department about this.
If your employer doesn’t offer match funding, we can provide plenty of work based fundraising ideas for you!
Let us know as soon as possible, depending on the event, wherever possible we will try to roll your place over to the next year.
Absolutely! If you have your own place we would be delighted if you would like to join #TeamFelix and fundraise for us and help us to fight food waste and feed Londoners in need.
We would love to discuss this with you further, just drop us an email.
