Fundraising

A range of ways to get involved

We don't receive any formal outside funds and rely on income from our subsidised rider fees and the generous support of donors and grant givers. Remember It Is What You CAN Do That Counts from making jam, supporting at events, taking part in a street collection or perhaps making a donation we appreciate all the help you can give.

We couldn't do it without you!

Help us support over 100 participants to access therapy through riding, the opportunity to achieve and to have FUN.

Recycle your ink cartridges

Did you know that you can help us raise funds simply by recycling your ink cartridges via our Recycle4Charity programme?

For each ink cartridge recycled via the programme we will receive up to £2 donation.

Amazon Smile

Shop on Amazon? Who doesn't... Support us by selecting us as your chosen charity and shopping through smile.amazon.co.uk. It is the same Amazon but every time you shop they donate 0.5% of the net purchase price on eligible products. It is that simple!

Get manure for your roses

We have lots of manure from 9 ponies... Tonnes in  fact. We have a 'Muck Market' stall near our front gate with bagged manure for your roses. It operates as a first come first served basis and all we ask is you make a donation in return.

Donate unwanted horse equipment

We take used and unwanted  (or new and it's not needed) horse equipment with everything from rugs to tack. Where items can be of use to us we will make use. For items that we can use we will keep and for anything else we sell  in  order to  help raise vital funds.

If you have any please email office@elisabethcurtiscentre.co.uk  to arrange a drop off.

Corporate Sponsorship and Support

It costs us nearly £5k a year per pony to care for each of our 9 very special ponies who do so much to support our riders. This includes everything from feed and bedding, dentistry and farrier bills, vet and osteopathy fees, insurance costs and to provide the excellent care from our grooms.

Could you or your business sponsor a stable for the year? Come meet your   sponsored stable (and its resident) and have a plaque in pride of place on the stable door.

Perhaps you could volunteer your business services to the centre and help us reduce our running costs?
