Title: What to do for Children In Need Post by: tigscoco on November 12, 2006, 06:07:13 PM Need an idea for something fun to do at my work to raise some money, I seemed to nominate myself as the event orginiser, and I've not done anything yet.
I work in an office, so I'm kinda limited, but I need something that everyone can get involved in, and will raise a lot. I had a few ideas such as:- Crazy Hair Day Waxing some hairy man Sponsered Silence (work on a phone all day, so may not be a fan) Car Booty See what I mean, HELP please! Any ideas will be well recieved Title: Re: What to do for Children In Need Post by: Rooky9 on November 12, 2006, 06:21:38 PM Getting the boss to sit in a bath of beans while staff pour tomato sauce, treacle etc on them!
I have been thinking about combining some sort of event with giving myself some sort of fitness goal. I've doen the great north run a few times for charities. I am currently thinking perhaps a cycle from Leeds to Liverpool... but not until next summer!

it was a raffle. everyone had to bring something and the tickets were 50p. also, we all wore pink and donated £2 for doing so. you could do them same. everyone wears a nose and pays. we did the raffle over lunchtime. it was a real hoot!! good luck Title: Re: What to do for Children In Need Post by: Poppet7 on November 12, 2006, 06:27:58 PM My mum used to organise things like this and the best thing they ever did was had a 'Puddings Night'
Get everyone to bring along a pudding and I think they charged a set fee to eat as much as you could. I certainly enjoyed them! Just an idea Title: Re: What to do for Children In Need Post by: Poppet7 on November 12, 2006, 06:28:53 PM Also what about a day where you dress up as the opposite sex, some of the blokes might enjoy the privelege of getting away with it in public?

That's a disgusting suggestion .... ... whereabouts is the office, by the way?

That's a disgusting suggestion .... ... whereabouts is the office, by the way? I think its a great idea! Its a Scottish Power Sales Centre in Falkirk, we do mad things all the time, so they will be up for something!

Could be a good success if the people in your office are fun.
