Challenge events
These can be brilliant team building opportunities for groups of work colleagues while supporting Helen Arkell Dyslexia Charity.
Choose a challenge from our website or choose your own – set your fundraising target and off you go!
Matched giving
Many businesses like to support the charitable work their employees do and to encourage their staff to take part in events or organise fundraising activities agree to ‘match’ the amount raised. This is a great incentive for employees who want to raise money for charity and demonstrates the company’s support for their staff.
Sponsor one of our events
Another way to show your support is to sponsor one of our events. We are currently looking for sponsors for our Golf Day and Big Walk for Dyslexia. Details of your sponsorship can be included on promotional materials, on our website and social media as well as at the event itself.
Volunteer with us
Volunteering is a rewarding way to support the charity – details of current individual volunteering roles can be found here.
