Woolly Hat Wednesday!

About the event

Chailey Heritage Foundation hosts an annual Woolly Hat Wednesday where we encourage our supporters to wear their best headwear – from novelty beanies, to Christmas pudding hats to a classy top hat, nothing is off limits!

Whether you take part on the same day as us or decide to host your own Woolly Hat Wednesday throughout the year, that’s totally up to you.

All we ask is that you donate £1 (for children) or £2 for adults to Chailey Heritage Foundation.

1 - Assemble your team!

Gather your classmates, colleagues, friends and family – the more the merrier!

2 - Let us know!

If your school or business is taking part, get in touch with us and we can send you stickers, posters and collection tins as well as Chailey bunting you can put up on the day!

Want to go take it further?

Why not take on a challenge whilst wearing your best woolly hat? Run a chilly 5k, take on a bracing sea swim or a hilly hike. Set up a Justgiving Page and gather sponsorship! On the day, why not team up your Woolly Hat Wednesday with another fundraising idea like a team quiz or cake sale? Got your own idea? Don’t keep it under your hat! Get in touch with the fundraising team today, we’re here to help you through every step of your fundraising!
