There are several ways you can help, including:
Fundraising
Schools can fundraise for hospices in different way. For example, you could adopt a local hospice as your charity of the year or organise one-off events such as fun runs, ‘wear yellow’ days, concerts or 'Light up a Life' events.
Find your local hospice
Find your local hospice in our hospice directory and contact the voluntary service manager or co-ordinator to discuss how your school can help.

-
a handbook for primary school staff
