Fundraise
Your incredible fundraising efforts will make a significant difference to the patients of Addenbrooke’s and the Rosie hospitals. It’s thanks to people like you that we can save and transform lives every day, with cutting edge technology, pioneering research, specialist services and world-class facilities.
Fundraising ideas
Get started by picking an activity and thinking carefully about the date you choose. Weekends are usually best for the highest attendance, but Fridays are great for fundraising at work. And make sure you don’t clash with major holidays or events.
