Fundraise
"We were delighted to be able to raise funds for CCM over three quiz nights in the last 18 months. The charity provides very important services in our region and we are very pleased that our local customers have contributed so generously."
Stacey Taylor, owner of Six Bells Boreham
City of Chelmsford Mencap's mission is to nurture, empower and celebrate every individual impacted by learning disability by enabling their own unique sense of belonging, dignity, resilience, independence and achievement.
We do this through services including lifelong learning, social opportunities and specialist advice. Supported by our dedicated and highly skilled team, service users feel safe, valued and able to reach their potential.
Every year, we have to raise over £300,000 to maintain our vital services. We couldn't do this without the support of our generous donors and fundraisers, who know that giving to CCM means giving care, connection and community to our vulnerable service users.
There are many ways to support us through fundraising and you can be assured that, whether you are an individual, group, club or business, we will assist you in your endeavours!

We can help by providing resources such as branded collection tins, banners and information about the charity. This helps people know which charity you are supporting.
We will work with you to promote your fundraising efforts. We can help you produce promotional materials and we will feature your event or initiative on our social media platforms and website.
