Celebrate and Give

Christening/Naming Ceremony

If the birth of your child has highlighted the importance of a loving, respectful and protective family, use your celebration to help less fortunate children than your own.

Take a look at the different ways you can support us on your special day:

1. Use our donation cards

Include donation cards with your invitations and ask your guests to make a donation to the NSPCC instead of buying a christening gift. Your friends and family can return the card with a donation directly to us and we’ll thank them on your behalf. A couple of months after the celebration we’ll let you know how much has been raised altogether and send your child a special memento.

2. Raise money online

Ask your friends and family to donate online. You can set up a page on Justgiving really easily. Visit www.justgiving.com/nspcc and follow the simple instructions. Your friends and family can pledge their donation and see how much has been raised.

3. Hold a collection on the day

Have a collection on the day using our donation envelopes or boxes. Collect the money in yourself and send in to us using our donation returns form.

Special memento

As a big thank you from us, your child will receive a certificate and a special  "helping hand" spoon, so that when they grow up they’ll know how they’ve helped children less fortunate than themselves.

It can make such a difference - just look at Lucy May's christening...

Contact us directly on 020 7825 2867 or email celebrate@nspcc.org.uk to discuss your celebration.
