Livestream fundraising for charities: a practical guide to getting started

This free 75-minute webinar is for charity professionals, fundraisers and digital leads who want to explore livestream fundraising as a genuine income stream - and need a practical, proven starting point.

Over three years, Few and Far has run an annual charity livestream fundraiser for Leeds Mind called Get Together Through Gaming (GTTG). With zero paid media budget, it's raised over £20,000 - growing from £4,600 in year one.

This isn't about gaming. It's about community-led fundraising for the digital age - and how charities of any size can make it work.

• Why livestream fundraising is an underused opportunity in the UK charity sector
• The GTTG case study - four years of data, decisions and lessons learned
• How to plan and launch your first livestream fundraising event from scratch
• What platforms, tools and community mechanics actually work
• Common pitfalls and how to avoid them
• How to scale once you've got your first event under your belt

What you'll receive

• A video recording of the full session sent within 24 hours

Who’s it for?

This session is aimed at anyone working in or alongside the charity sector who wants to diversify their fundraising - particularly those responsible for digital, fundraising, communications or strategy.

You don't need any experience with gaming, streaming or live events. If you've got a community, a cause and an internet connection, this session will show you what's possible.
