Social Events
Social events are a key aspect of our fundraising activities. We're incredibly lucky to have some high-profile supporters across the spectrum - from dancers through to sports stars, TV presenters and even some touches of rock 'n' roll history. And, of course, royalty, through our patron, Prince Harry. Not only do they help to raise the profile of our annual WellChild Awards, they raise WellChild's own profile, which we need if we're to help even more sick children.
Social events needn't only be a star-studded affair though. Many supporters organise their own events - raising money through raffles, auctions and ticket sales.
Christmas Grand Sale - 20 to 23 November 2008
