We Ll Be Brandishing Buckets Across the City, So No Matter Where You Are, We Ll Be Collecting

The Big Brum Bucket Collection 2015 is one of the longest-standing events on the Birmingham St Mary’s Hospice calendar and we need you to make it happen! It’s a city-wide event that anyone and everyone can get involved with. Grab your bucket and take to the streets to raise money for local families living with terminal illness.

We’ll be brandishing buckets across the city, so no matter where you are, we’ll be collecting near you, from your local high street to your favourite supermarket. Get creative – from fancy dress to musical performances, dances to bag-packing, we’re ready and waiting for your fundraising ideas.

It’s a great way to meet new people, have a fun day out with friends, and do a whole lot of good for your local community!
