Fundraising

You donation can help us run our Carer Response Line, more than 60 Support Groups run across the county every month, a Carer Learning and Wellbeing Programme, an Equipment for Independence scheme, Counselling and Call Back services and many many more support services for West Sussex carers.

Brighton & Hove Bus and Coach Company have selected Carers Support West Sussex as one of the 12 charities to benefit from their 2020 fundraising activities. Previous year’s fundraising involved the Santa bus going on tour around the Brighton & Hove areas. The Santa Bus would attract huge crowds, whilst bringing joy and happiness to children and adults. Please watch the video here.

However, this year, Brighton & Hove Bus and Coach Company had to look at new ways to fundraise. Which led to combining the use of a GoFundMe page and the genius idea to sell festive themed, limited edition face coverings, to give everyone that festive feel.

You can buy a limited edition face coverings from their website here. If you wish to make a donation, you can also find the GoFundMe page via their website. There are even some free Christmas themed activities to add a tiny sprinkle of Christmas cheer.

Carers Support has been chosen to take part in the Co-op Community Fund for their Tilgate store in Crawley.

This means that when Tilgate Co-op members shop at this store money will automatically be donated to us to raise funds for our CHAT* events and PAPA* workshops. We will receive a donation each time someone purchases Co-op own branded services and products in store and this includes Co—op services purchased outside the store, for example, Co-op home insurance. We will also receive donations when people purchase shopping bags in store.
