Help us and have fun!
If you’re keen to help the Clock Tower Sanctuary, we’ve put together a list of ways you could raise awareness and crucial funds for our day centre, including some fundraising ideas that you can do from home.
If you are planning a fundraiser, want to discuss ideas, or have any questions about supporting CTS then please get in touch via [email protected] – we’d love to hear from you!
Do your own thing
We are so lucky to have a supportive community wanting to raise money to allow us to keep providing our service to young people experiencing homelessness.
You could run one of the classics – a music quiz, coffee morning & cake sale or go along to a car boot sale. Set up a JustGiving page for your at your special event wedding, civil partnership, birthday, or anniversary.
Supporters have done everything from sponsored swims, to sponsored ‘stop drinking coffee challenges’, to live music events, and their own Twitch lives streams – we can’t wait to hear what you’re planning and give you all the help you need to make it a huge success!
Donate to our Wish List
We’re always grateful to receive donations of any size! There’s a wide range of things you could donate to support young people experiencing homelessness. Whether it’s scarves in the winter, suncream in the summer, or sugar for day centre cuppas all year round, we appreciate your support in keeping our supplies topped up.
Your food donations become both the free hot meals that our volunteers prepare 5 days a week, as well as the free weekly food parcels that ensure that young people who are homeless can make themselves meals, drinks, and snacks when our day centre is closed. Your clothing and toiletry donations make a massive difference in young people’s lives too, allowing them to spend their money elsewhere and feel more confident in themselves.
As a small charity, we haven’t got as much storage space as we’d like! To make sure we only receive the gifts we really need, check out our Wish List to see which items would be the biggest help for the young people at CTS. You can click here to purchase and deliver donations directly to us, or get in touch at [email protected] to arrange your own donation.

Getting started
For help with setting up your own fundraising events, donation pages, and all of your questions, contact our Fundraising team on [email protected]. Before you get started, make sure you have read our Refund Policy.
Every penny you raise makes a difference:
- £10 can pay for a young person to have a shower, wash their clothes and eat a healthy, hot meal.
- £20 can go towards a home starter kit so a young person has the essentials to set up their new home.
- £200 could go towards training and support for a volunteer to support a young person.
- £500 could pay for a young person to access all of our support and facilities for two months.
"It’s been my absolute privilege to run for CTS. Running a marathon was on my bucket list and I don’t think that dream would have come true if not for knowing I am doing it for such a good reason. I may run more marathons in my life, but I’ll never again run my first – so thank you for a very special experience."
