Charity It’s a Knockout

Charity Events

One of our It’s A Knockout shows is a great way for a charity or cause to raise money for their cause whilst giving the participants a fun time in the process.

Not only does it generate money and future contacts, but it gives great publicity and local interest for a cause. This gives great PR & networking opportunities. Many charities and organisations have used our knockouts time and time again for this purpose.

Although some might say that the present financial situation is a reason for holding back on such an event, it is worth noting that the last Children In Need raised and Comic Relief events raised over 30% more than their previous events. Therefore, with the right planning and publicity, charity events, and charity "It’s A Knockout's" are a great and worthwhile event to hold. For those who are looking for the first time at this type of event, a table is shown here to help show the various ways that an event can generate money.

All the team members can be given sponsorship forms raise money by approaching friends etc. As an example, each team member approaches 25 friends and gets a £2 sponsorship from each (= £50), times by ten people in a team = £500 for the team !

In the password part of our website there are sample GIFT-AID sponsorship forms, Press Releases, poster clipart and charity fundrasing ideas sheets.

We can also give extra points to the teams according to how much they’ve raised. So the more money they raise, the more points they start with. This usually entices the teams to raise more than the entry amount.

Remember also that you can place an advert on our Events Page as well to publicise your event and enlist teams
