You can do your bit to help the Gazette’s appeal by organising anything from a cake stall to getting your friends to sponsor you for some weird and wacky trial such as sitting in a bath of beans.

Or, of course, you could go down the tried and trusted route of raising money by running a half marathon, cycling 50 miles or swimming a few lengths of your local baths.

Or you could do something to help your own health and fitness at the same time by giving up smoking, stopping eating chocolate for a month or cycling to work and giving the money you save on petrol money.

We also need businesses and organisations to take Devizes Opportunity Centre to their heart and to make direct donations.

Whatever you decide let us know so we can help promote your event and make sure you raise as much money as possible.

Email your event details to: jmoore3@gazetteandherald.co.uk
