Hi,
I work for a charity supporting vulnerable and homeless people and one of our service users wants to kayak around the British Isles to raise funds for us.
I am new in the role of Community Fundraiser and our charity has only recently started to develop the fundraising department.
I have a couple of questions and concerns that I sincerely hope you will be able to help me with.
First of all, do any of you work with vulnerable people and do you let your clients raise funds for you? If you do, what procedure do you have in place and what type and level of support do you offer? If you don't, what were your thoughts and concerns that led you to that decision?
Secondly, I am looking for information around the different issues involved in planning an activity like this. Any info about health and safety concerns and sollutions, permits, insurance, planning, the total cost involved etc would be extremely helpful.
Any information or advice would be fantastic and a great help for me!
Many thanks,
Rachel
