Donate

Our crowdfunding campaign for our first phase, a viability study, concluded successfully, with pledges exceeding the target. We say a massive thanks to everyone who pledged.

You can continue help our campaign (a Registered Charity, Number 1193643) by

• buying from our shop
• donate when you buy online via EasyFundraising at no cost to yourself
• donating your time, skills and expertise as a volunteer
• supplying your professional services or products pro-bono (free) or at reduced rates
• sponsoring our events or activities
• donating money to the campaign

Particular donations in kind that are useful to us include:

• website – currently kindly sponsored by Vinters Studios
• e-mailing in bulk – we currently use a free MailChimp account, but we anticipate we will have to start paying soon
• online photo archive – we currently use a free Flickr account but a pro account would help us host more images
• other online archives, such as programmes – we would like to scan and index these in a free to access web archive
• CRM system – currently kindly sponsored by a member
• Zoom – currently we use members’ own accounts; our own paid account would be very useful
• marketing, PR, advertising and print for our campaigns
• merchandise to support campaigns and for fundraising
• insurance – we currently pay for this out of donations
• additional legal, planning and commercial expertise to supplement current pro bono help
• accounting, tax – currently kindly provided by our honorary treasurer

You can donate money using a Credit or Debit card or PayPal account via PayPal, or regularly by Direct Debit. Or you can send funds by bank transfer or cheque – details are available from us.

If you are a UK taxpayer, please tick the Gift Aid box, or complete and return a Gift Aid form, as we can claim an extra 25p for every £1 you give as a tax refund. It will not cost you any extra.

Thank you for your support!
