Fundraising in School can be a great chance to give pupils a sense of achievement and responsibility.
If you are thinking about getting your school involved or you are a pupil at school and want to get involved please email our fundraising team on fundraising@papyrus-uk.org to see how you can help to support PAPYRUS. Please note if you are under the age of 16 we will need an email from your parent, guardian or teacher informing us they are aware you are wanting to fundraise for PAPYRUS and that you are in contact with us.
