Community fundraising

Raise vital funds to support police officers, staff, volunteers, and their families affected by trauma. Your community can make a life changing difference.

Why Community Fundraising Matters

Police Care UK receives no government funding, meaning fundraisers like you directly power the support we provide to serving and veteran police, staff, volunteers, and their families.

Community fundraising brings people together — neighbours, colleagues, clubs, families — to help those affected by trauma in policing. Our volunteers describe community supporters  as the heartbeat of local support, raising both awareness and essential funds

Push Yourself for a Powerful Cause

Challenge events are an incredible way to test your limits and raise funds at the same time. There’s something for everyone — from fun runs to endurance races — and our fundraising team can help you choose the right one.

Make Every Donation Count

There are multiple ways to gather support:

  • Create an online giving page (e.g., JustGiving) — quick and simple to set up.
  • Encourage supporters to sign your sponsorship form.
  • Use our collection tins for local events.
  • Promote your fundraiser in your workplace, local venues, online, or across social media.
  • Ask your employer about matched funding to boost your total.

Keep your supporters engaged by updating them on your progress — share why you’re fundraising, your training updates, or behind‑the‑scenes photos.

Meet Our Community Fundraising Volunteers

Community Fundraising Volunteers play a vital role in spreading awareness, organising events, and inspiring donations within their local areas. They help expand our reach, champion our mission, and bring people together to support those affected by policing‑related trauma.
