Fundraising across the UK for Pledge150
As part of our 150th anniversary this year, we want to highlight our public interest responsibility and the value of the surveying profession in developing influential solutions to society’s challenges in the UK.
We have partnered with LandAid, the property industry charity, to deliver an inspirational programme to help end youth homelessness and deliver the biggest ever, single fundraising initiative in LandAid’s history.
Our ambitious target is to fund the provision of 150 bed spaces across all 12 RICS regions in the UK. We need your help to protect young people at risk of homelessness and there are many ways you can get involved.
Over the next few pages you will find details of fundraising activities we are undertaking this year across the length and breadth of the country and how you can get involved, network and help us raise funds. From auctions to walking, cycling to an exclusive sale of limited edition whisky. There is something for everyone and it couldn’t be easier to support our initiative.
Let’s finally put youth homelessness to bed.

What’s more, the first 20 people to purchase a bottle from either cask will be in with the chance to visit the distillery watch your whisky cask being filled and partake in whisky cocktails.

The reason for taking part in Pledge150Over 80,000 young people experience homelessness each year. Imagine if life was different and you, or someone you know, had nowhere safe to call home.
It is shocking to think that in the 21st century in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, 80,000 of our young people won’t have somewhere safe to sleep at night this year.
We have the power to do something about this and we call upon you to take part in our Pledge150 campaign, in whatever capacity you can, and help us to eradicate youth homelessness.
Over 80,000 young people experience homelessness
every year. This equates to four students in every
school in the UK
