Support our

project work

Your donation goes directly into our programmes, the outreach, exhibitions, workshops, and community activity that improve health and wellbeing for people who too often go without.

Grant funding covers most of our costs, but donations help us fill gaps and take on work we wouldn't otherwise be able to do.

You can give to our general programme fund, or if you'd like to direct your donation towards a particular community or area of work, just let us know.

Support our

core work

Our core costs, the research that builds our evidence base, the staff time that holds everything together, the accountancy, the insurance, the software, are essential.

If you want to support the unglamorous, invisible, absolutely necessary work that makes everything else possible, this is where your donation makes the most direct difference.

3% Cover the Fee

This is an unrestricted donation that we can put towards any overheads or core costs we have. UK taxpayers can boost your donation by 25% through Gift Aid - it costs you nothing extra. We'll email you a declaration form to complete after donating.
