We're not raising money - nobody has any spare! We are participating though - we'll go to Lakeland Ltd and see all the staff dressed up, buy some Pudsey bun cases and make some scrummy buns to take home when we get back John posted a great Pudsey colouring a while ago so we'll do that while we're waiting for them to cook, then get the dressing up box down and have a fairy fest (2 girls just now!!) You could sell buns to parents and donate that? Sarahx

Children in need has it's own website - can't remember the link but you could google it - you can get a free fundraising pack which gives you ideas, stickers etc
Lakeland usually have some nice pudsey stuff as Sarah says
I'm not fundraising as I hate asking parents to donate but will probably bake and decorate some buns

Think there should be a Childminders in Need day - or at least a rest day!!! Not really thought about CIN this year - we;ve just done a sponsered Beep Beep Day so I think everyone will be skint or spent out anyway. We'll probably attend our local activities in town or at the childrens center.

I'm not really doing chidren in need either this year..have done mini pots of care..genourous parents donated £2 between them & am having a sponsered Beep Beep day in November...I don't hold out much hope of raising much more then i did for the mini pots of care...if anything! I've put £15 in for both as I was quite embarrassed! You can imagine the certificate.....has raised £2...when we sent you a tenners worth of resources...WELL DONE & thank you! ;D Tasha

i agree i know that since it came out that he gets paid for it a lot of people i know are not donating this year which is sad as it's the kids who suffer but i can't blame people for doing that as why would you give away money that you worked blooming hard for when terry earns a stupid amount for his radio show and still gets paid for doing charity work!!
