What are you doing for this year’s Agents Giving day?
On June 23rd, Agents Giving are bringing the industry together for 24 hours of fundraising.
It’s your chance to get involved and organise a great fundraising event to support the charity of your choice. You can register your interest and ideas here.
Need more inspiration? How does £1,000 sound?
We’ve set up a Rightmove fund to help agents with the set up costs of your fundraising, meaning your efforts result in the maximum reward to charities. It’s administered by Agents Giving and you can apply for a grant of up to £1,000 towards your fundraising event set up costs. Find out more here.
Over £600,000 has been raised by agents since the fund began. Can you help push this further by helping out a local charity?

Anne Malone wows the crowd and raises £1.7k
Anne Malone of Humphreys of Chester not only raised loads of money for charity but went out of her comfort zone to take part in a Strictly Come Dancing event in Liverpool.
Anne was one of 10 amateur dancers paired with 10 professionals that wowed a crowd of over 300 people. Overall the event raised £40k with Anne raising an impressive £1.7k.
Anne said: “The experience was a bit daunting especially having to dance the Viennese Waltz in front of more than 300 people but I did it and was very proud scoring 23 out of 30”.
The Rightmove support grant went towards Anne’s hair and makeup costs for the event. Well done, Anne!
