The easiest way to collect donations for is to set up an online fundraising page before you hold your event, using either JustGiving or Virgin Money Giving.

You can personalise your page with a story, images and details of your fundraising which can then be easily shared with everyone. The money you raise is transferred directly to us and if you have ticked Gift Aid that is transferred automatically to us too.

Let everyone know about your fundraising to help make it a success. Tell friends and family, advertise it at work, school or on local notice boards in your community and of course, share it on social media such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Don’t forget to take photos on the day and tell everyone about how it went afterwards.

To help make your fundraising success we have collection boxes, fundraising guidelines, forms and other resources for you to download or request.

If you set up a fundraising page then you don’t need to do anything. It will be transferred to us securely automatically.

If you or others organised your own collection, there are a number of ways you can get the money you’ve raised to us.

Pay in your fundraising.
