I am raising money by doing a 100 mile cycle ride for Martin House Childrens Hospice and my fundraising has come to a halt. I have an online sponsor form but I need ideas on how to attract potential sponserers. Does anyone have any ideas or any companies that might sponsor me for a great cause. Our children need us. Please Help :A:cry:

    Talk to a fundraiser at the Hospice for idea. Check out the help pages of your online fundraising page provider. This is JustGiving: https://www.justgiving.com/static/fundraising-tips/

    Focus on friends, neighbours, relatives, people and companies you do business with. People and companies who don't know you are unlikely to sponsor you.

    I second the supermarket idea - some have these community programmes in place and would welcome the chnce to be seen as charitable. Good luck : )
