Give as You Live, Easyfundraising and Amazon Smile, donate a percentage directly to Sight Concern Worcestershire every time you purchase. Best of all it is free for you to use and is easy to set up:

Amazon Smile

• AmazonSmile is a program that donates 0.5% of your eligible purchases on Amazon to a charity of your choice.
• All you need to do is start your shopping at smile.amazon.com. The donation will be made at no extra cost to you and you can choose from nearly one million public charitable organizations.
• Though 0.5% is not a large donation and it isn’t intended to replace your regular charitable activities, AmazonSmile is still a great way to take advantage of a service you’re using anyway.

If you’re looking for a simple, automatic way to continue supporting your favourite charity, you should start your Amazon shopping at smile.amazon.com. You shop as you normally would on the site, at no extra cost to you, and you don’t need to make a separate account, just log in to AmazonSmile with your normal Amazon Log In, select Sight Concern (Worcestershire) as your chosen charity and shop as normal. Amazon do the rest.

Give as you Live

They work with thousands of charities from multinationals to local volunteer-run causes. Their success stories include schools, churches, scout/brownie groups and sports clubs. They work with 4,200 online retailers and also offer in-store shopping cards for dozens of retailers.

Go Green and Recycle your unused Magnifiers and other Equipment

We are all for recycling here at Sight Concern and think giving unused equipment a new lease of life is the responsible thing to do.  So, if have any magnifiers or any other assistive technology equipment you are not using, let us recycle them. We will either re-redistribute the equipment to people who need it or use them to help raise funds for Sight Concern.

Please contact Jo on 01905 723 245 Email info@sightconcern.co.uk for further details.

The next time you receive post don’t hurl the envelope into the waste paper basket without checking if there is a stamp on it.  It can earn us money! Simply cut around the stamp leaving no more than 1 cm of envelope and not too close so that the perforations are damaged. Collect loads of them with your family and friends.
