Donating the money you raised

After your run please donate the money you have raised to Age UK Cambridgeshire & Peterborough find out how here . You can also set up a supporters page/ fundraising page for us at Give as you Live- DONATE to collect donations/sponsors. More information on how to do this is HERE.

Did you know we are a different and separate charity from the national charity, known as Age UK? We share the overall brand but we are independent. This means we have our own Board of Trustees and deliver services to older people living in our area, that of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. To deliver these local services we must raise all our own funds.

If you want to give a donation, fundraise or provide other support to the local brand partner, look for the geographical location in the Age UK brand logo - this indicates the charity is independent and delivering local services.
