Events
Raise and Give hosts a range of events throughout the year. The profits raised from the events are divided equally between our 'Chosen Charities' as a donation. Keep a look out for our 2023/24 events coming soon!
Charities
Following pitch-days, charities are short-listed by the committee into three election pots which are then eligible to be voted on by the entire student body. The selected 'Chosen Charities' is the charity with a majority vote from each of the election pots. This year chosen charities are:
- The British Heart Foundation
- Trevi
- Devon Air Ambulance
For a collated- summary of each charity, click here.
