Our 2022 Fundraising Finale
Amassive thank you to every single person that put in a pound of their money or minute of their time towards any of our fundraising activities this year!
We’re proud to be finishing the year on a high with our new partnership with the John Lewis Partnership alongside Action for Children. We can’t wait for the things to come as part of this opportunity and to create long lasting change for the Care Experienced community. Read more about it on page 20.

From the beginning of 2022, we have seen massive support through our membership and corporate parents especially during our annual Kiltwalk fundraisers. We had over 200 walkers and we raised £30,000.
A special thank you to the supporters who did their own fundraising activities by completing sponsored swims, runs, cycles and more.
‘I wanted to give back to a charity that helped me throughout my care journey, that’s why I fundraise for Who Cares? Scotland’- Care Experienced Member.
This year, we did our first fundraising bungee jump. It was fantastic as it gave people an opportunity to fundraise for us whilst ticking off a bucket list item. We’re immensely proud of everyone who took part and together raised £2,800.
Our fire walk returned for a second year and had our members and corporate partners side by side. It was a really special moment which taught us ‘we can walk on fire so we can conquer anything’. We raised £3,000 from this event and we’re really grateful for everyone that took part.
This year has been really successful and it wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our corporate partners. Two are ending this month and we would like to say a massive thank you to Ashurst and Wylie and Bisset. A massive thank you for the ongoing support from our partners Wee Blue Coo, Birchbrae Lodges and the John Lewis Partnership.
Fundraising is a vital part of Who Cares? Scotland and we couldn’t do this without our supporters, partners, funders, friends, and members who have braved earth, wind, and fire for a lifetime of love for Care Experienced people.
The Fundraising team want to say thank you to each and every one of you for your ongoing support
