A fun and simple way to get involved

We’ve created ready-to-run music quiz and activity packs designed especially for schools and young people. They’re simple, flexible and fun, and can be hosted in a way that works best for you. Plus, if you’re not into quizzes, there’s other fundraising ideas too.

Whether it’s during an assembly, in class or as part of an after-school club, taking part is easy and engaging for pupils of all ages.

Everyone who signs up will receive a digital copy on email, and you can also request a printed pack delivered by post.

This could include:

• Resources to support mental health and wellbeing
• Funding for sports and activities that build confidence and inclusion

Raised local, stays local

Where we have a local Cash for Kids team, the money you raise will stay in your area, supporting children and young people in your community.

That means your quiz won’t just be fun, it will have a direct impact close to home.
