New Halloween Fundraising Pack

Halloween can often perpetuate some of the misconceptions about bats but it is also an opportunity to celebrate how wonderful bats are and make more people aware of this. Although real bats across the UK may well be hibernating during Halloween (depending on how cold it is) you will see lots of bat themed decorations in shops, pubs and in our homes. Bats are really misunderstood and undervalued and are much more than a Halloween decoration.

Now more than ever, bats could use all the support they can get so we are asking everyone to make this a positive Halloween for bats by both raising awareness of bats and funds to help with their conservation. To support your engagement and fundraising efforts we have created a brand new Halloween Fundraising Pack which you can download for free HERE. You can now start thinking ahead and plan an epic Halloween party that celebrates bats. The pack will give you some ideas of events you could organise as well as some tips you should consider when organising an event.

In THIS PAGE you will find lots of ideas for your event that will keep your guests entertained; from funky cocktails to batty games for both grown-ups and kids we are sure you will find something for you.

If you can donate for bats this Halloween then do visit our Justgiving page HERE and please do share it widely. We would like to raise £1,500 this Halloween so all donations, large or small, will help us get a little bit closer to that target.

We would also love to see your photos so if you want to share them with us on social media or email them to us - comms@bats.org.uk .

Happy Halloween celebrations!
