Oxfam’s work

Trailwalkers – the money you raise at this years event will make a massive contribution to Oxfam’s work. Last year each team raised an average of £1,909 and together raised over £916,000 in sponsorship.
Start early
Remember the golden rule – start early! Teams who successfully reached their pledge in 2009 collected 80% of their sponsorship before the big day.
Fundraising inspiration
For most Trailwalkers, it's a mix of different fundraising techniques that helps them reach their target. Sponsorship should see over half of your target reached; then events, cake sales or selling services will see your team home.
Work as a team – together you have a large network of friends, family, colleagues and business contacts.

2009
Team Leaders – How we reached our target (PDF 110KB)
- “As a team we presented to our division a short and eye opening overview of the challenge and what this means in practice.”
- “The key to raising our money this year was to offer our suppliers to become one of three corporate sponsors.”
- “We have had our best results organising small easily manageable events. We have always found that giving something back to our donors pays dividends.”
- “We launched the Justgiving page in January and every time we completed a training walk we updated the page with notes and pictures.”
- “If there is one piece of advice we can give to teams for 2010, it would be to spread the message as far and wide as possible, people are really interested in what you are doing.”
