Welcome to the Andrea's Gift Events page.  Here you will find events that are run through the Andrea's Gift office together with events run by supporters.  


If you would like to run a sponsored event for Andrea's Gift, consider setting up an online web page for your event via JustGiving where your sponsorship is collected automatically and Gift Aid of 28p in each pound is added to your total without you having to do anything!  Setting up the page is very simple, if you need any help, contact Carol.


You can also download an Andrea's Gift Sponsor Form with Gift Aid here too, if you find an event that you would like to do for Andrea's Gift.
