For schools
There are two simple ways for your school community to support The Great British Skip and help raise funds for 52 Lives and The School of Kindness.
Host your own fundraiser – a Skipathon, bake sale, non-uniform day, kindness challenge or sponsored event – and donate the funds raised directly to The Great British Skip through GiveStar.
Downloadable sponsorship forms are also available for pupils to collect sponsorship from family and friends.
Want to track your school's progress and celebrate what you've raised? Create your own GiveStar fundraising page as part of The Great British Skip event. You'll receive a unique fundraising link to share with families and supporters, set your own target, personalise your page, and see your contribution added to the overall Great British Skip total.
Together, we can help bring kindness to life and ensure more children across the UK can access free kindness workshops through the School of Kindness.
