Summer of Fun Campaign 2023 3rd July - 4th August
This year, Start Up Stirling is inviting our supporters in our communities and businesses throughout the Stirling Council area to join us in making this Summer a Summer of Fun for the children, families and people that we support with our services.
10 Nations Tour Cycling Fundraiser
Bob is a regular volunteer as well as trustee with the charity, he and Gavin thought a gentle bike ride of 2500km while raising money for a charity close to Bob’s heart would fill their summer. The money raised will go towards our summer trip which will be running for the 3rd year, giving families living in hardship a chance for a day out with all activities and refreshments paid for by the organisation. If you would like to hear more about the Cyclopaths and donate towards the Just Giving page
Foodbank 10th anniversary
This month, Start Up Stirling marks the 10th anniversary of our first crisis food bank, in response to the needs of the people who were living with food insecurity in 2013. This isn’t a landmark that we are celebrating, as our services to support individuals and families who are facing hardship and poverty have never been higher. In 2022, we had the highest referral rate that they have ever had, when we supported 3,682 individuals, over a third of whom were children. We provided the equivalent of 124,080 meals last year.

Christmas Wishes Appeal 2022
Start Up Stirling’s Christmas Appeal 2022 is all about Christmas Wishes. Sometimes making the smallest of wishes come true can make the biggest impact. Over the coming weeks, our Appeal will highlight some of the different practical support that Start Up Stirling services provides for people living in hardship across the Stirling Council area. Could you make someone's wish come true this Christmas?
Harvest Appeal 2022
This year's Harvest Appeal runs from 1st September until the 10h October.This Autumn and Winter, we anticipate that our services at Start Up Stirling are going to be needed more than ever. With the prediction of a recession, and a further rise in food and fuel costs, it is going to make it even more difficult for people to make ends meet. Please help us build up our food supplies this Autumn, so that we are able to help everyone who has been referred to us for food support, when they need it most over the Winter months.
