Creating your own fundraising page on our website to share your success and update your supporters on your progress. It`s a simple, all in one place way to engage and promote your fundraising story and we can share and promote your fundraising for us too.

RLSS UK’s fundraising pages on our website instead of a third party provider, means that all money raised goes to RLSS UK rather than a portion of your donations going towards platform costs.
