As I am sure you are aware, the club is continually in need of funds and we have found a way in which you can help this effort, at no cost to yourself.

An organisation known as easyfundraising provides a free service where you can shop with your favourite online stores and at no extra cost raise funds for the club. You still shop directly with each retailer as you would normally, but simply by using the links from their site first, each purchase you make will generate a cashback donation.

For example, spend £25 with WH Smith and 3.5% will be donated. You will have raised £0.88, at no extra cost to your purchase. Make any purchase from Amazon and 2.5% will be donated. Insure your car with Direct Line and raise £35.00, or purchase a mobile phone from O2 and earn £17.50, and so on.

You can shop with 2000+ Brand Name retailers and to raise funds you just use the links from the site first - it's that simple!

If you ALREADY shop online, why not help at no extra cost, from purchases you would make anyway.

You can also raise money by using the search engine easysearch

Easysearch is a new charity search engine where you can raise funds, simply by surfing the Web! When you search online using easysearch, you'll raise funds for the club with every search you make. By making just 10 searches a day with easysearch instead of Google or any other search engine you can raise around £20 a year, just through your normal web searching!

As well as helping you to raise funds, easysearch also provides the best search results. Today, the Internet is so big that different search engines will often return different results for the very same search. So, they have combined the results from several major search engines - Yahoo!, Bing, Ask.com, MIVA and many more - to make easysearch a 'super' search engine. easysearch tracks down the most relevant and accurate search results from across the Web, which means you'll find what you're looking for quickly and easily every time - in one 'easy' search!

easysearch is completely free to use, so this is a great way to support the club - just by searching the Web as you do already!

Some questions you may wish to ask:

Why do retailers support such fundraising?

It seems very generous, but when you buy online the cost to the retailer is much lower. As there's no shop, salesperson, heating, electricity, rates, not even the cost of the bag to put your goods in, retailers are more than happy to help good causes when new online customers are introduced to them via the website. Please note that the club receives 100% of the donation. E.g. the donation rate for M&S is 5% of all spend, so your chosen good cause will receive 5p for every £1 spent.

Will I pay anything extra?

No. You pay the same prices exactly as if you visited each retailer's website directly. Using this service will not cost you a penny more than you would pay normally.

How much can I raise?

Up to 15% of every purchase is donated, depending on which retailer you select and what you buy. The exact donation that will be paid is displayed directly next to each retailer listing. With some categories such as mobile phones and insurance there is a cash value. If a retailer offers more than one donation, or if there is any special information about the retailer, please click the image.

Am I dealing with the retailer or with easyfundraising?

You still deal directly with each retailer. Easyfundraising simply record your visit to their website and reward your selected cause if you make any purchases.

Save money

Many retailers give exclusive 'Internet-only' discounts, special offers and even money saving 'eVouchers' to easyfundraising members, so as well as raising funds, you can also use the site to save money.
