Every event helps fund life-changing support for people overcoming addiction, unemployment, and life during - and after - serving a prison sentence. By joining an event to raise funds for The Forward Trust, you’re helping people to rebuild their lives, secure stable housing, find employment, and reconnect with their communities.
Can’t find an event that you fancy? Why not give your own a go! Take a look at our ideas here for some inspiration.
You can support The Forward Trust every time you go shopping online with our respected partner, easyfundraising.
By joining easyfundraising and selecting Forward as your charity of choice, you’ll turn your online purchases into free donations for Forward. It’s free to join.
Just start your online shopping by using easyfundraising, then shop as normal. As a result, participating retailers will make a small donation to say “thank you”.
