Charity Events & Discounts
At Jokers Bouncy Castles, we are incredibly grateful to be considered when charities, community groups and fundraising events are looking for entertainment and inflatable hire.
We regularly receive requests asking if we can provide discounted rates or free bouncy castle hire for charity events. While we fully understand the importance of supporting good causes, we have made the decision that we do not offer discounts or free hires for charity bookings.
As a small business, we already support charities and causes that are personally close to our own hearts through private donations and contributions made throughout the year ❤️
Running inflatables safely involves ongoing costs including:
-
Equipment purchase and maintenance
-
Safety testing and inspections
-
Insurance
-
Cleaning and sanitising
-
Delivery, setup and collection
-
Staffing and fuel costs
Because of this, every booking is charged at our standard rate so we can continue providing safe, reliable and high-quality equipment for every customer 🎈
We truly appreciate your understanding and thank all charities and organisations for the amazing work they do in supporting local communities.
If you would still like to book with us, we would be very happy to provide a quotation for your event and help make your day a success.
A Great Way to Raise Funds at Your Event
Instead, one effective way to generate money for your charity or fundraiser is to hire a bouncy castle or inflatable at the normal hire fee and then charge users to play.
For example, you could charge £3 per child for 10 minutes of play, allowing you to raise funds throughout the event. Once your hire cost has been covered, all additional income can go directly to your charity or fundraiser 🎉
Choosing the Right Inflatable
When deciding which inflatable to hire, it is worth thinking beyond simply choosing the cheapest option.
A smaller castle may cost less to hire, but it also allows fewer children to use it at one time, which can limit how much money you are able to raise.
A larger inflatable often offers better earning potential because:
- More participants can play at the same time
A larger inflatable can quickly become a focal point of your event and encourage more people to take part 🎈
We are always happy to discuss suitable options for fundraising events and help you choose equipment that works best for your space, audience and goals.
