Getting your money to Home-Start UK:

Online fundraising

If you set up an online fundraising page, money pledged there will be sent to Home-Start UK automatically. We recommend setting up a JustGiving page using this link.

Offline/ traditional fundraising

By post
When you have finished collecting the funds raised from your event, we suggest you bank the money and then send a cheque for the total amount made payable to Home-Start UK to the address below. Please also consider Gift Aid (please read Gift Aid section below) as this could add approximately 25% to the value of your donation. Unfortunately we can't accept cash by post.

Our address:
Home-Start UK, Clarence House, 46 Humberstone Gate, Leicester LE1 3PJ. 

Please don't forget to include your name, address and some details about your event. If you have been collecting sponsorship from individuals (e.g. for a sponsored head shave), rather than donations/payments (for cakes at a bake sale or tickets for an event), it's important that you enclose your sponsorship form, so that we are able to claim any Gift Aid.

If you have raised money as part of a challenge event (run, trek, etc) 

If you have set up a JustGiving page, there's nothing else you need to do, the money will come to us.

If you've not raised your funds online, you'll need to send in your completed sponsorship form along with a cheque for the total value of sponsorship you have obtained.

Bank Transfer
You can bank the money you have raised and transfer the money to Home-Start UK by bank transfer. If you would like to arrange this please email us at [email protected]

Getting the money to a local Home-Start:

Please find the contact details for your local Home-Start here.  You'll need to speak to them directly to arrange how your funds can be paid in. 

If you don't have a Home-Start close to you, please choose Home-Start UK or another local Home-Start to raise money for.
