Hello! Me and my mum were thinking of trying to get my (primary) school involved with diabetes fundraising, and we have two good ideas - Type Onesie Day, And Dress Blue For Diabetes. In our school when there is a day when you wear your own clothes you have to pay: £1 a person or £1.50 for a family.
I really want to raise some money for Diabetes UK or JDRF, so I would appreciate any other ideas (that don’t take too much organisation) or experiences with this kind of thing. Thank you in advance.

You are to be commended for that ... loudly. Well done young lady
 
Diabetic cake day.
Exercise morning. Get the PE teacher to set up a 5 min routine for you and your clsssmates and then encourage/ force parents to do the challenge and then donate.
 
Hi @Ruby26913 Great idea

If you contact JDRF and find out where your local office is they should send you some fundraising support material like posters, t-shirts that type of thing.

I am just about to 'get your kit on' for JDRF this week, so running 26 miles in 28 days !!
 

Good for you

Not that much into any kind of sport. Good idea though, thanks!
