How you could help
There are numerous different ways you could help to raise vital funds for NCLS.
Fundraise in your community
Host a coffee morning, quiz night or local sale. Bringing people together to support access to justice helps raise both funds and awareness.
Fundraise at work
Get your colleagues involved with dress-down days, bake sales or team challenges. Workplace fundraising is a great way to boost morale while supporting your community.
Take part in an event
Join a local run, walk or sponsored activity. Take part in a community event and raise funds for vital legal services across Norfolk.
Fundraise for a special occasion
Celebrate your birthday, wedding or anniversary by asking for donations instead of gifts. Turn your special day into a lasting act of kindness.
Take on a challenge
Push yourself with a sponsored walk, cycle or skydive. Personal challenges inspire others and raise essential funds for people who need our help most.
