05/02/2010 - 05/02/2010 - Bibby News Deadlines for 2010

We are always looking to include details of people’s community involvement in the Bibby News, on our Community website and by contacting the local media with news of what you have been up to in and around your communities.

Involvement in your community can include:

Carrying out fundraising for your chosen charity?
Volunteering at a charity event?
Taking part in a sponsored event?
Giving your time at a school, community group or club?
Running a marathon, climbing a mountain, cycling a peninsula for your chosen cause?

If you have any pictures from the event can you also send them, as this will increase the chance of the article being published, especially in the local media, which will help promote your chosen cause further.

Please send stories by e-mail to community@bibbylinegroup.co.uk or forward to the Community Team, Bibby Line Group, 105 Duke Street, Liverpool, L1 5JQ.

The deadline for submitting your volunteering and fundraising stories for the Bubby News in 2010 are;

5th February
30th April
23rd July
15th October

The Community Team looks forward to receiving your stories.

08/02/2010 - 14/02/2010 - February Fundraising Week

Fundraising week isn't just about giving your hard earned cash to charity. There are loads of ways that you can support your charities by:

Having a raffle for unwanted Christmas gifts
Donating food such as biscuits and chocolates not eaten over Christmas
Giving your time at a local shelter
Cashing in your coppers and donating to your chosen cause
Holding a sweep to win Christmas wine and champagne left over from the festive season
Hold a coffee morning with all your friends

You could even tie in with valentines day and do something romantic…..

· Sell your kisses

· Bake heart shaped cakes

· Wear pink and red on the Friday before

Don't forget anything you raise will be matched as part of the Giving Something back Community Programme (up to £1,500).

You chose the charity you would like to support and the community programme will double what you raise. Now that really does make a difference!

Your event doesn't have to take place in the workplace. You can tie in with your charity, church, school or your local community.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do and don't forget to take a good picture to go in the Bibby News, telling the team what you have been up to.

Send stories and pictures to: community@bibbylinegroup.co.uk
