How to organise a charity night

From a music gig to a spot of karaoke, a charity night is a great way to get people together to raise money for Mind. Follow these simple steps for a night to remember!

When and where

Set a date and venue. For example, you could use a pub, social club or local community centre.

Plan

Decide what kind of event you’d like to host: karaoke, music gigs or discos are always popular. Make sure to book any entertainment you need early and that the venue has the correct licence (a Public Entertainment Licence). If not, you will need to obtain one from your local authority.

Advertise

Spread the word. You could advertise on your company’s intranet, in the local press, on social media or by putting up posters. Decide on the number and cost of tickets.  

Organise volunteers

Ask people to help with the organisation of the event, selling tickets and assistance on the night. The more volunteers you have to help, the easier it’ll be.

Fundraise

To boost donations you could find other ways to fundraise on the night itself, such as an auction or raffle. Ask colleagues, family and friends to donate unwanted items or services to use as the lots or prizes.

Gather materials

Get in touch with us to talk about collection tins, buckets, banners or other materials.

Enjoy

Have fun and enjoy yourself!
