Become a Friend

Many people choose to support The Place2Be on a regular basis via Standing Order. Gifts of any size are greatly appreciated, and those who choose to give £10 a month (or more) are welcomed into our network of Friends.

Friends receive:

ÙA copy of our award-winning annual review magazine, The Place2Be Journal

ÙEmail bulletins, including news stories and press releases

ÙInvitations to special events

Payroll Giving and other ways to give

Payroll Giving is a tax-efficient way of donating money directly from your wages. As the money you give comes out of your salary before tax, a typical £10 gift actually costs you just £7.80 (the additional £2.20 being made-up of money you would otherwise have paid in tax).

As a first step, please talk to someone in your payroll or finance department. If your company doesn’t yet have a Payroll Giving scheme, they can set one up quickly and easily.

Any questions?

Call our finance team on 020 7923 5511 or email payrollgiving@theplace2be.org.uk

Sponsored events

Over the years, many children, parents, teachers, counsellors, friends, aunties, uncles and even grandparents have raised vital funds for The Place2Be through sponsored events.

Recent events include:
  • A sponsored Fire-walk by Cindy, one of our Volunteer Counsellors
  • An expedition to the North Pole by a team from Clifford Chance, one of our corporate supporters
  • A sponsored Channel swim by four friends celebrating a 40th birthday (and raising money) with an extraordinary challenge
Not that you need to take your life in your hands to support us; everyday hobbies such as running and cycling can easily form the basis of a sponsored event.  And if you’d like to raise money for The Place2Be, we’d be only too happy to help.

How can we help?

For practical tips on organising an event, please call the events team on 020 7923 5536 or email events@theplace2be.org.uk

We can also provide you with sponsorship forms, information on setting up online donation pages, and fact sheets about The Place2Be if you would like them.

Gifts in-memory and gifts in Wills

Supporting The Place2Be means helping children now, whilst also giving them the prospect of a better future. It’s a gift for today and for tomorrow; for individual children and the world they will occupy. That’s why ‘In Memoriam’ giving is such a powerful way to pay tribute to a loved one who cared about children, whilst legacies can ensure that your own beliefs and values live on through our work.

In Memoriam gifts – remembering someone special

You can make a donation of any amount in memory of a loved one. All In Memoriam gifts are recorded in a special commemorative book, along with your message of remembrance. The donation itself goes directly to our work with children.

Legacies – remembering The Place2Be in your Will

Naturally, most people’s priority in making a Will is to provide for their family and friends. But having done this, you may also wish to leave a gift to a charity whose work you believe in. At The Place2Be, we know that leaving a legacy is a very big step and - regardless of the amount - we always consider gifts in Wills as very special.

If you would like to know more about In Memoriam gifts and legacies, please call Sarah on 020 7923 5527. She’ll be happy to talk things through in greater detail – and in confidence. Alternatively, you can reach her via legacies@theplace2be.org.uk

Remembering Mark

When Mark Lattimore tragically passed away in December 2004, his family, friends and colleagues decided to remember him by donating over £600 to The Place2Be. We have been extremely touched over the last few years that Mark’s family continue to remember him, whether on the anniversary of his death, or his birthday or other notable dates, by making further donations. Mark really believed in the value of our work and we are truly grateful to his loved ones for their on-going commitment to Mark’s belief
