Special occasions
If you have an anniversary party or significant birthday coming up and don't want your guests to feel obliged to bring you a present you don't need, why not suggest that they make a donation to Solva Care instead via our easy-to-use Donations page?
In memory donations
We are always appreciative of donations made in lieu of flowers at family funerals.
Become a Friend of Solva Care
We have launched a new scheme for people to regularly support our charity if they would like to. You can become a Friend of Solva Care by donating monthly or annually via a standing order from your bank account. Any amount would be much appreciated to help ensure Solva Care can continue to be here for all the people we support.
Fundraise for us!
You could organise an event to raise money for our services such as a coffee morning or a dance. Raffles are are a great way to raise money as local businesses are often happy to donate prizes. We are always happy to chat through your ideas and publicise your event.
Be sponsored for us!
It doesn't have to be a marathon, but if you are running a 5k, shaving your head or having a bath in baked beans, think of us. It is easy to set up your own sponsorship page on site such as Localgiving or JustGiving or do it the old-fashioned way with a sponsorship form!
Leave a legacy
Your first thoughts when writing your will are to make sure that your loved ones are looked after. But, through your will you can also leave a gift that helps Solva Care to continue to provide our services free of charge to our local community.
Why not become a volunteer?
Why not become one of our team of 40 plus volunteers? Organised by our Coordinator, you can help our residents in all sorts of practical ways. From providing lifts to the local surgery, assisting with shopping, walking dogs, helping with IT or paperwork.
Whatever your skills or experience, volunteering is a way to make a real difference in our community.
And volunteering is a great way to meet people -the other volunteers as well as other residents in Solva.
“…my reason for joining is simply that I have personally experienced serious health problems for many years and, because of the help and support I have had here in Solva, it made me realise now I should do something to give back while I can.”
