At Inspire, we’re all about pushing young people out of their comfort zones, encouraging them to try something new and get involved in a whole world of opportunities.
And that’s something you can mirror in your own life whilst fundraising for us.
People don’t sponsor people for their ‘every day’, people sponsor people for pushing themselves to their limits in aid of something they believe in.
So we encourage you to challenge yourselves, and raise money for Inspire in the process. Every penny you raise will go toward transforming the lives of Chorley’s young people.
You can transform young lives by fundraising in the local community, hosting events and competing in challenges sometimes without even leaving the comfort of your own home!
Whether it’s your local football team, your school or even people from your neighbourhood – here’s a few ideas to get you started!
