Fundraise for PTSD UK
Firstly, thank you so much for your support! Honestly, we’re over the moon to have you on board. Every penny you raise or donate helps us fulfill Our Mission to help everyone in the UK affected by PTSD, no matter the trauma that caused it.
We’re humbled that you’d like to fundraise for PTSD UK, and we’re here to help make that as easy as possible for you.
Facebook Fundraisers
Perhaps it’s your birthday, or another reason to celebrate – but instead of gifts, you’d like your friends and family to donate to PTSD UK. Perhaps you’re undertaking a challenge and want to spread the word on Facebook. Thank you! It’s very easy to setup a Facebook fundraiser (simply fill in the details required and share it with your loved ones!) and watch your total raise!
Hold your own fundraising event!
Whether it’s a bake sale, Christmas Fayre, Summer BBQ or Pub Quiz night, we’ve got you covered! If you want to run your own fundraiser, please just drop us an email here, and we’ll send you a pack with posters, leaflets and other goodies to help you make the most of your event.
Take part in an event with Team PTSD UK
There are lots of events up and down the country that you can take part in to fundraise. Perhaps its a run, walk, cycle or swim that you’re keen on? If so, we’ve got lots of events that you take part in as part of Team PTSD UK – and you can find out more about them here.
Online Sponsorship Pages
If you’re taking part in a challenge and want to get sponsorship from your friends and family – its really easy! We’re registered with several online donation platforms, but the major ones such as Total Giving, or Just Giving will let you setup a page with some information about your challenge, and keep a running total for you too. Once your fundraising is over, they’ll send the money to us, and claim Gift Aid on any relevant donations too.
Sponsorship forms and cash
If you want to go ‘old school’ and use a physical sponsorship form, we’ve got you covered. Download your PTSD UK Sponsorship Form here
Please remember! If your donors or sponsors are UK taxpayers, don’t forget to ask them to Gift Aid their donations (by selecting ‘yes’ and adding their UK address on any sponsorship forms). By adding Gift Aid, we can make 25p for every £1 given and it doesn’t cost you a penny
If you’ve already held your fundraising event , please visit this page to see how to get your hard earned cash to us.
