Fundraising resources

Now you have chosen your event, it's time to get going with your fundraising! If this is the first time you have done any fundraising, don’t worry. The majority of people taking part in our events won’t have ever done anything like this before….but many then do it again and again!

Once you’ve registered for one of our events or told us about the event you are planning, the events team will support you every step of the way! Just contact Emma or Katherine on 08450 719 300 if you have questions at all about fundraising.

You will find lots of useful fundraising materials in our Resource Centre, which you can order as hard copies or download. This includes our comprehensive fundraising pack which has sponsorship forms and lots of useful tips to help you with your fundraising!

You can also order packs of balloons, stickers, copies of awareness leaflets, posters, further information about bowel cancer and the charity’s latest newsletters.

If you are raising money for Beating Bowel Cancer then we can send you a complimentary running vest or t-shirt to wear during your event – just contact the events team and tell us about your event. You can purchase additional merchandise from our online store.

We also encourage all runners to really put bottoms on the map, and wear our eye-catching Bum Shorts...they really help you stand out from the crowd and get you noticed!

I am glad I wore my bum shorts!  I had been very nervous about doing the event on my own, but shouldn't have worried.  I had my "bottom" pinched and patted lots of times, struck up conversations with people along the way because of them, and caused lots of people to smile.

Bum Shorts cost £4.99 + P&P and can be ordered though our online store.
