Schools’ Accumulator Challenge

What is the Accumulator Challenge?

Our Accumulator Challenge is a fun and impactful fundraising initiative that empowers students to raise money for Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care while developing teamwork, creativity, and entrepreneurial skills.

Each participating team uses £30 seed money provided by the school. Using this initial amount, students work together to multiply the funds through various fundraising activities such as bake sales, competitions, non-uniform days, concerts, and more.

At the end of the challenge, all the money raised is donated directly to Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care to support our vital work in providing care and support to local patients and families.

Put your entrepreneurial skills to the test and see if your school can accumulate the most funds this year!

“The Year 12 students at Loreto College have been taking part in The Accumulator Challenge for many years. It is an amazing and rewarding experience for them – not only do they get to support an incredibly worthwhile charity but, on a personal level, they develop their confidence and their organisational, team working and sales skills. It also looks great on their CV and UCAS application!”
