If you are interested in organising a large scale special event for UNICEF then please do get in touch.

UNICEF would be delighted to add your event to our calendar and would warmly welcome your fundraising efforts. In return we will offer you plenty of support along the way to help you raise as much as possible.

If you are organising a special event and would like to raise funds for UNICEF please complete our event form and tell us all about your event - our events team would love to hear from you.

Events in support of UNICEF have included industry functions, ceremonies, parties, balls and fundraising dinners hosted by some of our very own ambassadors.

Previous special events

Recent highlights have included the Alliance Ball, which has been supporting UNICEF for over five years and raised over £1.5 million for UNICEF. During this time the Alliance Ball committee has funded a number of projects, including constructing schools in rural Malawi, which has enabled hundreds of children to fulfil their right to an education. To thank Alliance for their commitment, members of the event committee were taken on a visit to Malawi to see the work they have funded firsthand.

In 2007, to celebrate UNICEF UK Ambassadors Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman’s televised motorbiking adventure in Africa, our friends at Long Way Down organised a fantastic fundraiser. And in 2006 Trudie Styler organised a spectacular event co-hosted by Jemima Khan and Heather Bird, attended by famous names including Hugh Grant and Shirley Bassey, and guests were treated to performances by Sting and Sir Elton John.
