Why fundraise for The Yard?
When you fundraise for The Yard, you’re helping to create life-changing experiences for disabled children and young people.
Your support ensures they have access to the resources, play spaces, and support they need to thrive. Every bit of money raised goes straight into making The Yard a place where children and young people can have fun, make friends, and just be themselves.
By getting involved, you’re not just raising funds—you’re giving these children the chance to enjoy their childhood in a space made just for them.
Here are some exciting ways your school can get involved
- Themed Fun
Celebrate special occasions with a fundraising twist! Dress up as superheroes, bake delicious treats for a bake sale, or get sponsored for a crazy hair day – the possibilities are endless!
- Get active
Organise a sponsored sports day, a skipping rope challenge, or a dance-a-thon. Get your school moving and raise money for a good cause!
- Get Creative
Host a school talent show, showcase student artwork with a charity auction, or perform a fundraising play. Unleash your school’s creativity and raise awareness about The Yard.

Youth & Philanthropy Initiative (YPI)
The Youth & Philanthropy Initiative (YPI) empowers young people in secondary school (S2-S6) to make a meaningful impact in their community. We are thrilled to support students participating in this initiative as they raise awareness of our work and develop skills in confidence, teamwork, research, and presentation.
We are incredibly grateful to every school and student who advocates for our charity and selects us as the deserving recipients of the £3000 grant. If you’re interested in representing us, please give us a call or send us an email.
