Why Inflatable Shelters Work for Charities

Inflatable shelters are designed for the kind of events where traditional structures like gazebos and marquees aren’t practical. They’re compact when packed down, fast to deploy, and instantly recognisable once inflated. For charities that travel to events or work on limited manpower, they’re a simple, eye-catching solution that still delivers the professional image of a permanent marquee.

They’re also highly customisable — you can print your charity’s logo, campaign colours, and calls to action directly on the covers, so every appearance becomes an opportunity to raise awareness and attract new supporters.

Popular Charity Uses

  • Awareness Campaigns and Roadshows – Stand out in busy town centres or public spaces with branded, high-visibility shelters.

  • Outdoor Fundraising Events – Use as ticket points, information stands, or raffle bases at community fairs.

  • Mobile Outreach & Support Services – Provide safe, weatherproof space for volunteer work or welfare activities.

  • Exhibition & Convention Stands – Create a portable, polished presence at indoor or outdoor charity expos.

  • Emergency Response or Crisis Support – Offer cover and coordination points for quick-response teams or relief initiatives.

Choosing the Right Inflatable Shelter

Our Gala Shade INFL8 Inflatable Event Shelter range is built from durable, air-beam technology that requires no metal poles. Available in sizes from 3 m × 3 m to 6 m × 6 m, each unit inflates in minutes using the included pump.

For charities, the biggest benefits are ease of transport, fast setup, and strong brand presence. The INFL8 is made from high-quality Dacron material, known for its strength and UV resistance, ensuring a long life even with frequent use.

If you regularly attend shows, fairs or festivals, the inflatable option can replace multiple pop-ups — one asset that works across your entire events calendar.

Branding & Accessories

Inflatable shelters offer huge scope for visual impact. Choose fully printed covers, interchangeable panels for different campaigns, or add accessories like lighting, flooring, and anchoring kits. With crisp digital printing and reusable components, you can adapt your setup for every new cause or season.

Need to stand out? Add a printed archway or banner to guide visitors straight to your stand.

How to raise maximum funds for your charity

How long does it take to set up?
Around five minutes for most models. Just roll out, connect the pump, and inflate — no frame or tools needed.

Are they safe in bad weather?
Yes. The Dacron material is robust and waterproof, and the shelters can be anchored with guy ropes or weights for stability.

Can we add our charity branding?
Absolutely. We can print full-colour logos, slogans, and designs directly onto the covers or supply removable banners for different campaigns.

How do they compare to gazebos or marquees?
They’re faster to set up and more portable, ideal for smaller teams or mobile events. Gazebos and marquees still offer greater space for large gatherings.

Do you offer different shapes or sizes?
Yes. The INFL8 range includes square, rectangular, and dome options from 3 m to 8 m wide, all fully customisable. Get in touch with the team on 01709 242454 to discuss it!
