Why have I been asked to sign up to a regular monthly donation by Smile Fundraising?

Our fundraising partner Smile Fundraising Ltd www.smilefundraising.com are running the Fire Fighters Charity face-to-face regular giving campaign on our behalf to engage with the public to ask them to donate to our cause.

Why does Fire Fighters Charity need monthly regular donations?

As the UK fire family’s charity, we exist to provide life-long care and support to members of the UK’s fire services and their families, helping them to adapt to physical, emotional and social challenges, however the need for our support has continued to grow – and so too has the cost of delivering it. We simply cannot continue offering these life-changing services without your help, especially as we receive no government funding.

How does Smile Fundraising recruit regular donors?

They only recruit supporters at private sites – Their fundraisers work from our charity-branded stands at privately owned areas such as shopping centres. They share information about our vital work and how the public can help support us by giving a monthly donation.

The times of day that fundraisers work at private sites will vary according to the opening times of the site.

We do not recruit for our regular giving via door-to-door activities.

If you have any concerns about being approached to sign up to a monthly regular donation, then please contact us.
