I am doing the fundraising for my school fete - thought it would be interesting to pool resources on what national companies/organisations always support you..

We always get support from:

Strada
Russell & Bromley
Tesco
Sainsburys

i work at m&s. they are usually happy to do things like hampers, worth a try particularly if several of the schoolchildren's mums work there.

I find local companies are good at donating prizes for raffles/ auctions, especially if they get a name drop.

Try beauty salons, sports shops, pubs, chocolate shops, bakers. For goods or vouchers. Vouchers are good for them as it brings new customers to their business.

What about a beauty salon doing a nail bar at the fair. Or getting party planners to tke a stall to use it for promoting their parties and pay rent for the stall, like Virgin Vie, Silver Company.

Other stallholders that can be found nationwide:
Pampered Chef
Phoenix Cards
Tupperware
Usborne Books
Oriflame / Colour&You / MaryKay cosmetics type things
