Play Your Part in 2025 - Attend a charity event - Join a fundraiser - Change Lives!

Join One In A Million at one of our fun and well-organised fundraising events whilst helping us to raise charitable funds to continue our much-needed activities in the community. Participate as an individual, team up with friends, family, or rally your colleagues.

Charities like One In A Million are facing increasing challenges, where many organisations are having to do more with less. Despite this, One In A Million continues to provide essential community-based programmes for children and young people in communities that are amongst the top 1% of the most disadvantaged communities in the country.
