Charity

DB Entertainment can provide quality bouncy castles or inflatables for your event. Whether it's a village fete, school fete or barbeque, country fair, charity event or fundraiser, we can help.

Charity & Fundraising Events

As an event hire company, we're frequently asked for free bouncy castle hire or a discount. We don't provide free or discounted hires, because as a company we've already chosen several good causes that we personally want to support each year, and they're close to our hearts! Also, a bouncy castle can potentially make a lot of money at an event, even after paying the hire fee.

Instead, we can provide a bouncy castle or inflatable at your event for the normal hire fee. You can then generate funds by charging users to play, e.g. £1.50 for 5-10 mins. All the profit made after the cost of the hire fee can then go to your charity or fundraiser.

Tip! When deciding which inflatable to hire, don't necessarily opt for the cheapest castle. The smaller the castle, the fewer participants can take part at any one time, potentially limiting your earning potential. Also, a larger castle or inflatable is eye-catching and a crowd drawer!

School fetes, barbeques, village festivals, country fairs and more

There are 3 options for bouncy castles & inflatables at these types of events:

1. We deliver and set up the bouncy castle(s) ready for the event, then return to collect at the end. This leaves the event organisers to supervise the inflatables and abide by our terms and conditions.
2. We deliver, set up, collect and supervise the bouncy castle(s) for our normal daily hire rate, plus £15 per hour for a trained, uniformed supervisor. The event organiser can then choose either to charge or to let the children on for free.
3. You turn a boring sponsored walk or run into an It's a Knockout Family Fun Run - see below for details.

"It's a Knockout Family Fun Run"

The idea incorporates fundraising in the form of either a walk or a short run over a series of fun inflatables, and anyone above 5 years old can take part and have fun. It turns the average sponsored walk or run into a great fun event for everyone, and it's guaranteed to raise more money, as hitting a minimum sponsorship is easier to achieve.

Items we can put together to form this mega fun run include:

• Mega Assault Course (120ft) - designed around It's a Knockout events, and it can be separated into individual activities such as the bish and bash run, hurdles, scramble net and up-and-over wedge slide
• Tunnel Vision (It's a Knockout Style)
• More games from our It's A Knockout range, including giant skis, giant sack racing and crazy caterpillars

Charity events are a big part of what we do. For one sponsored walk in aid of the Children's Hospital Charity we supplied seven gazebos, a PA system and a branded gantry, and the organiser told us: "Easy to book, arrived on time, set up efficiently and collected everything as soon as the event finished. This helped make the event run very smoothly," Rachael said.

So whether you're a charity, school or community organisation looking for fresh ideas for raising money, we'll put the perfect package together for you.
