Barnardo's needs exciting, fun and engaging new fundraising ideas to appeal to everyone and help increase our fundraising at a local level. Your idea will need to inspire people, make them smile and give them an enjoyable experience while raising money for volnerable children. If your idea is a 'winner', you could see it being undertaken by groups of volunteers up and down the UK.
