Ways to Get Involved
Join us at one of our fundraising events or get in touch to host your own. Every event helps raise vital funds and awareness so we can continue providing essential listening and support services.
I passionately believe in SYCLS and found it immensely rewarding to fundraise for them.

2026 Events
Coffee, Cake and Chat
April/May
Calling all bakers (and cake eaters)! Host a coffee morning either at home, work, church or in your community. It’s the perfect way to bring people together over coffee, cake, and great conversation – all while supporting SYCLS.
“We chose to get involved in Coffee, Cake & Chat for SYCLS this year by simply adding it into our regular refreshments after our Sunday service. It was a really easy win! We thoroughly believe in SYCLS and were encouraged by how much money we raised, so quickly and easily. People were generous – and loved the cakes!” – Andy, St Paul
Summer of Adventure – Sky Dive
Date TBC
Join Baz in an unforgettable fundraising event – get a panoramic view whilst raising sponsors for SYCLS.
Summer of Silence
July
Join Linda and gather sponsors to stay silent for 24 hours – a powerful reminder of the importance of listening and inner calm.
Sheffield 10k
27th September
Join us for the Run for All Sheffield 10k! Whether you walk, jog, or run, every step will make a difference. Plus, you’ll get a free SYCLS t-shirt to wear with pride if you sign up and contact SYCLS before the end of August!*
“What can I say about the She eld 10k – just do it! I’m no runner, slow and steady is my motto, but when SYCLS put the call out, I thought ‘Let’s just give it a go’. It was my first ever race and I enjoyed every minute (even the hills!). Now, we’re planning other 10ks and am sure we will be signing up for 2025!” – Sally
“The She eld 10k was the nudge I needed to get fit and run again after a 10-year break. The event was amazing. I would highly recommend it to anyone – you won’t regret it.” – Chris
