Festive fundraising
Show your love this festive period and get fundraising for Martlets!
Spread festive kindness for your local hospice
Whether at school, work, or in your community, bring people together to support local families when they need it most.
This year, we have two exciting ways for you to spread the festive cheer and get fundraising for your local hospice.
Choose how you'll take part:
Show Your Love Day
Pick a date in December to run your own festive fundraiser – from Christmas jumper days and bake sales to adding a fundraising element to your school concert.
We have all the festive ideas and fundraising support you'll need to make your Show Your Love Day a success.
Tree of Love
Turn your workplace Christmas tree into something truly meaningful. Invite colleagues, clients, and customers to leave heart-shaped messages for a donation.
We'll send you a Tree of Love pack with everything you need to fill your Christmas tree with festive thoughts and messages.
Flexible festive fundraising
While we’ve designed Tree of Love with businesses in mind and Show Your Love Day for schools and groups, you are welcome to get involved in whichever initiative works best for you.
Whether you're an office wanting to host a Show Your Love Day bake sale or a school setting up a Tree of Love in your foyer – pick whichever idea brings your school, group or team together best, and helps you spread the most festive fun!
Want to do both?
Schools
Set up a Tree of Love at your own Show Your Love Day Christmas concert and invite children and families to add a heart to the tree before and after the show.
Businesses
Combine your Tree of Love with a festive jumper day or festive bake sale for colleagues, customers or clients and make it a Show Your Love Day!
Why fundraise for Martlets?
Every event held and heart hung helps us raise vital funds for local hospice care. Your support ensures that local people with life-limiting conditions and their families receive care, comfort, and precious moments together when it matters most.
Your fundraising helps families like Marie's
Marie's brothers, Dan and Carl, were tragically diagnosed with the same rare leukaemia, and died just a few months apart.
Thanks to hospice care, they were both able to face their diagnoses on their own terms, and while their journeys were different, we helped them both spend their final moments where they really wanted to be - at home, with their loved ones and pets close to them.
