Fundraise for Month of Mayhew
London-based animal welfare charity, Mayhew, is holding a month of fundraising fun in May to continue their vital, life-saving work to help abandoned, neglected and vulnerable cats and dogs, as well as owners in need, both in the UK and overseas.
During Month of Mayhew, you can be as creative as you like in how you fundraise for the animal welfare charity; from holding a cake sale and adding a dog or cat-themed twist, to running a marathon to hosting a dinner party dressed all in purple (Mayhew’s colour, of course!).
Mayhew’s CEO, Caroline Yates, said: “The work we do just wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of our supporters who choose to help us in whichever way they can. We can’t wait to see the different ways our supporters will be fundraising for us this month!
“All the money raised from Month of Mayhew will go towards us helping more dogs and cats escape a life of cruelty, neglect and abandonment in the UK and overseas.”
Follow these easy steps to take part:
- Pick a way to fundraise
Choose from one of Mayhew’s fun ideas below or come up with your own!
- Sign up for your free Month of Mayhew pack
Mayhew can send you everything you need to ensure your fundraising goes well, including lots more fundraising tips and ideas, banners, flags, balloons and a collection box.
- Make it Mayhew
Why not add to the fun by making your event dog or cat themed and ‘making it Mayhew’? You could wear cat or dog ear headbands or bake dog or cat shaped cakes – the options are endless! You could even make your colour-theme purple to fit in with Mayhew’s brand.
- Share your success!
Mayhew would love to see how you are getting on and you might even get a re-share on their social channels if you use the hashtag #MonthOfMayhew
Here are some suggestions as to what you could do to raise money for animals in need:
- Bring your dog to work day
- Take part in a challenge event such as a marathon, cycle, abseil or even a bungee jump
- Animal-themed dress up day at school or work
- Hold a bake sale
- Host a dinner party dressed all in purple
- Organise a pub quiz
You can also come along to support Mayhew at their annual Open Day on Sunday 13th May. Join the street party and enjoy a unique look behind the scenes where guests will be able to visit the Cattery, tour the Veterinary Clinic and meet some of Mayhew’s TheraPaws dogs.

My granddaughter has become a cat writer at a young age – in a language not her own!
Oh wow! What language is she writing in?
Afrikaans , at the moment, but I am sure she is going to do some more in her home tongue of English!
Interesting I can understand a little Afrikaans as there are some elements that are similar to german and dutch
Very much so; particularly Dutch in which it is rooted.
