Each and every year, our senior staff here at SJ's Leisure sit down and allocate a set budget for charity events. As a small, family run business this budget is allocated pretty quickly. We have many charities that we work with each and every year as these charities may be close to our hearts due to life experiences and these charities do take up a lot of our allocated budget.
We would love to help each and every charity fun day but as a business with high running costs such as insurance, staffing, unit and storage costs, fuel, vehicle costs, testing of equipment both inflatable and electrical, maintenance of equipment and many other costs, it is literally impossible.
As a leading hire company with over twenty three years experience in the inflatable and leisure industry and having catered for hundreds of charity events since 1994, we have the knowledge and experience to best advise you to make your event a success.
During our peak summer season, we hire our bouncy castles and inflatables throughout Merseyside and cover parts of Cheshire and Greater Manchester. This delivery zone features areas such as St Helens, Wigan, Warrington, Liverpool, Ormskirk, Leigh, Widnes, Chorley and many other surrounding areas. Use our online postcode checker to see if we cover your delivery postcode.
Charity and fund raising events can turn a profit sometimes even a large profit even after paying a hire fee for an inflatable bouncy castle, obstacle course or any other fun product.
Ideally, if your event has enough space, we recommend hiring a large inflatable for charity or fund raising events. The reason? Larger events generally allow for more users. Smaller inflatables can limit your potential earnings.
Some of our products are ideal for 'dragging' people into your event as they are extremely eye catching. Check out our large inflatable football dartboard and inflatable Helter Skelter slides as examples.
When hiring a bouncy castle for a charity event, we recommend that organisers charge £1 - £2 per user for five minutes use. As you can imagine, over a four to six hour event, you would be turning a profit pretty quickly.
For more information on any of our hire products or services, please contact us today by email (info@sj-leisure.com) or telephone (01744 602717).
If you are currently organising a charity event or fund raising event, we wish you all the success in raising your much needed funds!
