Donations & Fundraising
We need to raise around £75,000 each year to maintain our services, expand existing provision and pilot new initiatives. Headway Bristol could not operate without the generous support of our fundraisers, donors and volunteers, to whom we are so grateful. Every pledge of support, item donated and penny raised is invaluable to us and the people that we support.

It’s simple (and completely free) to set up a fundraising page on JustGiving. It only takes 60 seconds to get up and running. You can write out your personal fundraising story, add photos and even video and colour to your page. Best of all, it’s all incredibly simple to do. It’s the easy way to collect your sponsor money, it will increase the amount that you raise for Headway Bristol as Gift Aid is added to your donors contributions automatically.

Gift Aid
Please don’t forget to gift aid your donation.
If you are a UK taxpayer, under the Gift Aid scheme every £10 you give is worth £12.50 to Headway Bristol. We can reclaim the tax you have already paid on your gift. It doesn’t matter what rate of tax you pay as long as you pay an amount of income or capital gains tax equal to the tax we reclaim on your donations in that financial year.
