Helping Us

Collecting for the Foundation


Marvin the Monster collecting
Do you have a few hours of free time?

If you do then collections are one of the easiest ways to raise money and awareness for the Foundation. Below are the different types of collection you can get involved with.

Simply choose whichever suits you best then get in touch with your local office for all the support and resources you need to make your collection a success.

Street Collection Street or store collections are easy ways to raise money for the Foundation all you need is a couple of friends or family to join you then spend a few hours rattling a tin for the Foundation. Your local office will be able to tell you of any upcoming collections in your area or you can organise your own - our fundraising team is there to help you.

House to house collections - Giving Together are great if you can't spare a lot of time as they only involve dropping envelopes through doors in your local area and then returning a few days later to collect the (hopefully) full envelopes.

Counter top collection boxes - we are always in need of people to look after the many static collection boxes we have in the community. Do you know of a shop or business in your area that would allow us to put a tin on their counter?

Home collection boxes
are the easiest way to collect for the Foundation. We can send you a collection box to keep at home or on your desk at work to collect all your small change. Once it's full simply count the money and send it to the Foundation.
