Fundraising
Fundraising is vital to ensure we can continue to run the office, which enables us to manage the shopping, befriending and driving services to our existing clients and to an increasing number of new clients.
In addition to the monthly afternoon teas held at The Cambrian Centre, we have run trips to Kew Gardens on the Discovery Bus, visits to Holly Lodge in Richmond Park and The Poppy Factory, but all these activities need financing as we need to rent a mini bus to transport clients.
There are two easy ways to help us to boost our funds; you can donate via www.localgiving.org; this can be a standing order or a one off donation or you can raise funds when shopping on line via the easyfundraising platform.You can also make a payment direct to our Lloyds Bank account, Sort Code 30-96-26 Account 74747260.
If you are an online shopper visit our easyfundraising page. The following video link shows how easy it is to support us. easyfundraising is supported by more than 3,500 well known online stores such as Argos, John Lewis, ASOS, Booking.com, eBay, Boden, M&S, J Sainsbury, Waitrose and many more. When you make a purchase, the retailer sends us a donation based on the value of your shop. It’s really as simple as that! So far this year we have raised over £350 from shopping via this platform.
