Host a film marathon in your home
Get the popcorn and get ready and settle in for a 24-hour film marathon!

Give something up for the TSA
Turn over a new leaf – give up smoking, your usual tipple or favourite junk food!
Ask for sponsors or donate funds you would have spent – seeing the money go up might be the motivation you need!
Shop online and improve TSC lives
Doing your shopping online during self-isolation? Make sure you’re using the services below – by doing so, you can help improve the lives of people affected by TSC!
Through Amazon Smile, Give as You Live or Easy Fundraising, the TSA will receive a small percentage of the final purchase amount, at no additional cost to you!
Turn a cancelled event on its head
A cancelled or postponed event shouldn’t stop you doing something physical for people affected by TSC – how about setting yourself an indoor physical challenge, such as press-ups, squats or planks?
If your local run been cancelled or postponed, you could do your own virtual event – for example, could you do a marathon over a month?
You just throw on your trainers and rack up the miles with a target in mind, or ask family and friends to donate what they would have otherwise sponsored you for!

Use a personal passion to raise funds and improve lives!
Your passion could be a way to improve the lives of people affected by TSC. You could use your love of gaming for a sponsored gaming marathon, or sell your beautifully crafted knitwear in aid of the TSA!
Had to cancel a get-together? Then celebrate virtually!
Had to cancel a birthday bash, postpone an anniversary party or rethink another special event? You can still signify the occasion –Â ask those close to you for donations to celebrate!
