A change to our processes
Please note that our team is working remotely following the UK government’s guidance relating to the COVID-19 outbreak. We’re still very much on hand to assist with your queries relating to donations. The most efficient way to donate just now is online or via bank transfer. Unfortunately, we can’t take donations over the phone at the moment, and postal donations will take longer to process. Thank you for your patience and support.
You can donate in whatever way you feel comfortable but at the moment the simplest way to give is using our online form or via bank transfer.
