The New Reality:
Fundraising Has Changed — And So Must WeGrants are shrinking. Costs are rising. Demand has never been higher.
Across the UK, charities are facing the same harsh reality: traditional sources of funding are no longer enough.
As grant income continues to decline, more and more charities are being forced to turn to individual donors and corporate partners to fill the gap. But there’s a catch:
Those very donors — individuals and businesses alike — are under intense financial pressure themselves.
The result? A fiercely competitive landscape where every charity is asking for support — but few are standing out.
The solution
Win-Win Fundraising
To succeed in this new environment, charities must offer more than just a worthy cause. They must offer value.
“Win-win” fundraising options — like prize-led campaigns, membership schemes, cause-related partnerships, and legacy giving — provide mutual benefit:
- Donors feel rewarded, appreciated, or engaged
- Corporate partners gain profile, purpose, or reach
- Your charity raises sustainable, scalable income
This isn’t about gimmicks — it’s about creating emotionally and practically rewarding ways to support your mission, even in tough times.
Membership benefits
Our membership benefits system saves an average household £200 per month buying the same things, like groceries and fuel, at the same places for less. You charge a monthly fee of say £20 and they are still £180 per month better off.
WILLS
The main problem with free wills weeks is it attracts people who want a free will rather than someone who wants to support a charity – so the legacy payments are rare and typically not commercially viable to collect. Our wills provide a quality product for a reasonable fee with the proceeds going to your charity now – and the legacy payments later.
prize draws and auctions
Tired of seeing the same tired teddy in every draw? A huge array of low cost, high value awards – on a sale or return basis means you have the exciting awards you need for every prize draw or auction. We even have self running instant wins that can be set-up in your own or local shops and hospitality premises.
CHALLENGES WITH BITE
We have hundreds of extraordinary events and challenges that will – from voice activated snail racing to abseils, gala evenings to gin making.
CORPORATE PArtnerships
We have a wide range of partner companies that will donate the proceeds of a sale to your cause – this means that by your corporate supporters switching to your partner suppliers for anything from: accountancy to PR, workwear to SEO, they can support you without it costing them a penny.
EXTRAORDINARY EVENTS
An incredible array of team building events, raise funds, avoid pointless volunteer projects and exceed CSR goals. The £50,000 challenge raises £10,000 per team and a further £40,000 for the company who provides the team.
