    Auction
    Night Walk (a sponsored walk, at night, may or may not be appropriate for your target group)
    Fun Run (we offered 1 km, 2 km and 5 km, prizes for the first one home in each group)
    Give It Up campaign - challenge people to give up something for a set period and donate money saved or get sponsors
    Signature removed for peace of mind

    Have you got a cinema near you you can hire for a night?

    Hire a film (girlie night one works well), themed food boxes, and a bottle bubbly. Raffle prizes.

    Sell tickets as a evening out for the ladies - depending on cinema hire cost and film hire - you can make a decent amount of money.

    What sort of charity is it for?

    The charity I support had a garden party last year- everyone pays 10/20 quid and gets a meal etc...

    We also had stuff from local businesses that were donated to auction off. It raised about 6k I think
