Sparkle Grant Blog

We at Sparkle Cleaning are so excited to be launching our first Sparkle Grant for Bristol. Sparkle Cleaning has been avid charity supporters since starting the company started in 2016 by supporting local clean-up events, donkeys of west Africa, Bristol Zoo and many individuals, previous to that Gareth Sanders, our founder, has regularly complete charity events since being ill back in 2008.

Gareth has run marathons, ultra-marathons, climbed mountains, cycled from John O’Groats to Lands End, cycled home from the Netherlands on a 50 euro steel framed Dutch bike and become a Guinness World Record Holder.

Its now time to support the new generation of fundraisers and adventures who are coming through which is why Sparkle Cleaning have made the commitment to give away a minimum of £1000 to local individuals who are looking to do the same.

All you need to do to apply is fill out our application form HERE with all the details and we shall get in touch.

Here is a few more details for what we are looking for

Be independently organised

Your trip cannot be part of an organised trip, race or event.

This includes volunteering through an organisation. The trip must be organised by you and your teammates with no-one else taking part. This is an absolute.

Be for the love of adventure and to raise money for charity

We are looking for someone who wants to do something special, to create memories for themselves in years to come, inspire others to try that little bit harder and most importantly not be sure if you can make it

Involve physical exertion

Trips must involve some form of physical exertion e.g. walking, cycling, climbing, swimming, running, camping.

Usually, involve camping

We are not going to be providing people with a cozy bed at the end of a long day cycling or running but we may help you get a tent.

Be original

We are not looking for someone who is taking part in an organised trip or someone who is going to follow a guidebook for a leisurely stroll through the country. We want this to be 100% you and your personality go out get muddy and get comfortable being uncomfortable

Not be a big budget

We can’t afford to give everyone large grants, therefore, you are more likely to be successful if you are looking to do it on a shoestring and raise the most for charity.
