Fundraising

As with any non-profit organisation, we are always looking for new ways to provide additional funds to maintain and buy new equipment.

Due to our divers' successes, we are attending more competitions and need funds to help cover the cost of these trips.

The committee also applies for local, regional and national grants to help the club.

Club Competitions

 

Club competitions are one of the main ways we raise funds. Please support the club by attending. See here for past events.

We also collect supermarket vouchers for kids, which go towards equipment.

Easyfundraising

 

Support Star Diving Club by registering with easyfundraising, the UK's biggest charity shopping site, which helps schools, sports clubs and other good causes to raise money when supporters shop online.

 

It works in a similar way to many other loyalty shopping sites, but rather than earning points when you shop, you raise funds for the club instead. It's as simple as that – and really easy to get started.

  • First, go to www.easyfundraising.org.uk
  • Click on 'Find a cause' and select Star Diving Club
  • Fill out the form to register your details
  • Find the retailer you want to shop with
  • Click to visit the retailer, then shop as you normally would
  • Your donation will be shown in your easyfundraising account within 30 days

 

You can also help every time you search on the web by using stardc.easysearch.org.uk instead of Google or any other search engine. Searching just 15 times a day can raise around £25 a year.

 

So the next time you need to find something online, please use stardc.easysearch.org.uk and help to raise money for the club with every search you make.

Crowdfunder

 

In February 2021, we launched our Crowdfunder campaign in which we aimed to reach 5,000km in physical challenges and convert them to cash to help secure the club's financial future.

 

Through our supporters' efforts and generosity we topped the target, completing the 28-day challenge at just over 6K. Divers, parents, family and friends walked, ran and cycled to help us achieve the magical final figure.

 

People also took part in online yoga, pilates and stretch and relax classes. Others bought fine art prints, signed books, a bespoke cake, a pamper hamper and club merchandise.

 

Some rewards will take place after restrictions end, including a family haircut for up to four and 121 sessions with Kirsty, our head coach.


Well done to Mia for winning the personally signed club T-shirt from GB, European and world diving champion and Olympic medallist Tom Daley.


The money raised will go towards balancing our books in the aftermath of the pandemic and help us on a sound footing when we reopen fully from April 19.

 

Big thanks once again to all our supporters. There are too many to list here but you can find them in our Crowdfunder page by clicking on the image above.
