Take Part and Make a Difference
Circle events are a vital part of the fundraising that helps us continue to provide services to support children and families across Central Scotland.
We have a range of events you can take part in, suitable for all fitness levels and you can choose to walk, run, or cycle your way towards helping us raise money. If none of our events take your fancy, there are lots of other ways that you can help to fundraise for Circle, whether it is organising a bake sale, taking part in a challenge or hosting an event to bring people together.
There are lots of opportunities to try something new and set yourself a challenge, so get involved now by taking part in one of our events!
Register your interest for one of our events, or enquire about hosting your own event by emailing Kirsten.Wales@Circle.Scot
You can also request your FREE Fundraising Pack, by emailing Kirsten.Wales@Circle.Scot
