Events

Taking part in an event is a brilliant way to support Once Upon a Smile while having fun and making memories. From adrenaline-pumping challenges like skydives and marathons to community favourites like bake sales and quiz nights, there’s something for everyone. Our events also include Smile Mile walks, corporate team-building activities, and family-friendly fundraisers. This is not an exhaustive list-if you have an idea, we’d love to hear it! Whatever you choose, every effort helps us provide vital support to bereaved families.

 

Why not create your own unique fundraising event or activity?

We have some amazing ideas in our A-Z guide but equally we love seeing what our supporters come up with! Whether you decide to do a bake sale, bring and buy or a brunch event, we will provide you with all of the support you need.
