From Online Auctions to Cow Patty Blocks – Get Involved in the Fun!

We’ve lots of ways our kind supporters can get involved in raising funds for PSP – just check our “Support Us” page here – but we’re always on the lookout for more. With this in mind here are 6 seasonal ideas that might just spur you on to get creative amongst your own communities whilst at the same time helping the PSP cause.

Online Auctions. Everyone’s being encouraged these days to clear out the attic and sell unwanted goods – particularly if they need the room for Christmas presents! Why not encourage your neighbours to let you sell their surplus items via Ebay, with the net proceeds going to PSP?

Calendars. Ok, it takes some courage to bare all, but with a little imagination your clothes can stay on. With the New Year approaching, try a variation on the “Calendar Girls” theme by getting your friends and neighbours to don seasonal fancy dress. For ideas check out http://www.createcalendars.co.uk

Wine Tasting. So, it’s Christmas, do we need an excuse? Wine tasting events can be readily arranged through a local wine shop/distributor. 

Worm Charming. We love these US imports! One for the spring, worm charming involves teams renting small “blocks” of land and attempting to “charm” as many worms to the surface as possible, by tapping sticks driven into the soil. Follow up with Cow Patty Blocks, where you use the same blocks of land, add a friendly cow, and award prizes to renters of the blocks that receive the cowpats!
