Fundraising Ideas

Whether you’re a seasoned runner or a beginner taking your first strides, there are plenty of running events to suit everyone. For some inspiration, visit the Run For Charity website and search by region, month or type of activity. Once you’ve found and registered for your event, please create your fundraising page for the Ocean Conservation Trust.  

Whether you’re hiking the coast path or swimming a significant distance, you can challenge yourself, have fun and raise vital funds to protect our Ocean.  

Other ideas include cycling from coast to coast or reaching new heights on a mountain trek. Get in touch to discuss your plans, or go ahead and create your fundraising page.

Some of the best ways to support Ocean conservation are by fundraising in, on or beside it. Whether you’re braving sea dips, kayaking coastlines, or participating in sponsored beach cleans, you’ll be connecting with our Ocean while helping to protect it.

There are many takes on the humble bake sale. Think coffee and cake on the beach, an afternoon tea with a coastal touch, an ocean-themed bake off or the classic bake sale (plastic free where possible). Grab your apron and bake for the Ocean! 

If you have your own fundraising idea, we’ve got plenty of resources and inspiration to help you along the way. Gather your friends, family or colleagues and organise your own fundraiser for the Ocean. Create your online fundraising page or let us know your plans. 

What better way to mark another year on this beautiful planet than by giving back? With a few easy steps, you can create your Facebook birthday fundraiser. Celebrate by raising funds to protect the Ocean for many more birthdays to come—oh, and don’t forget the birthday cake! 

From grocery shopping and travel bookings, to clothing and gifts, you can raise hundreds of pounds from all your online purchases. Simply sign up for free with Easy Fundraising and you can raise free funds for the Ocean Conservation Trust with your everyday shopping.

Celebrations are exciting times! Whether it’s your birthday, you’re getting married or it’s the holiday season, ask your friends and family to donate to Ocean conservation instead of buying you a gift.
