Once you know the event, activity or challenge you’d like to take part in, you can then set up your online fundraising page.

We recommend JustGiving, as it’s quick and easy to use.

  • To set up your Fundraising Page, visit JustGiving and click on ‘Fundraise for us’.

When do I need a Team Page?

  • A Team Page is great for a group taking part in the same fundraising event. You can add team members, set a fundraising target as a team and view everyone’s progress as you work towards the Team goal!
  • Supporting multiple charities simultaneously? You can create a separate Fundraising page for each charity and then bring them together into a Team Page for your event. Your supporters can then decide to which of the charities they would like to donate.

How do I set up a Team Page?

  • You will need to have an individual fundraising page before you can create a team page.
  • Step 1 – View your fundraising page and select the ‘Create a team‘ option. If you do not see this please check you are logged into your JustGiving account you created the page within.
