Been thinking about helping our day nursery to raise money to have a carport/shelter thing in the playground and soft/rubbery flooring, as the kids can't play out when it's raining and in summer, it's too hot. Also think it would be nice to have safety floor instead of concrete - purely selfish reasons of course, as my dd loves playing outside there, so it would directly benefit her!!!! I want to "do something nice" for them, as I can't afford to give money of my own, just time, after paying their fees every week!!!
How would they get money for this, as it is a private business and not a charity, so can't get grants/loans etc.
Would they need planning permission - how much would that be?
I have done charity fundraising events, but not for private sector - what could I do "legally" and how would I get the public/people to give money to the cause when it's not a charity - as my dp says, they charge loads of money to look after your kids, but have no funding for improvements to buildings etc. - they have loads of ideas, but no cash to do it.
