What is easyfundraising? easyfundraising is the UK’s biggest charity fundraising site. It’s simple to use, and it’s free. Since 2005, good causes and charities across the UK have raised over £24 million with easyfundraising.

How does easyfundraising work? easyfundraising turns your everyday online shopping into donations for your favourite cause, at no cost to you. How? Just visit your favourite retailers through the easyfundraising website and the shop as normal. Once you’ve made a purchase our retailers will then make a small donation to your cause to say “thank you”. There are over 3,300 retailers to choose from, so you’ll be spoilt for choice!

How much will I raise? The donation per purchase will generally be between 0.5% and 10%. Some retailers - including insurance and broadband providers - will pay a flat fee which can be in the £100s.

Is it really free? Yes! You won’t spend a penny more than normal when shopping online.

Can I buy everything online that I would normally? The world is your oyster. easyfundraising’s huge range of online retailers includes big names such as John Lewis, M&S, Boden, Expedia, Amazon, eBay, all the major supermarkets, holiday operators, insurance providers, plus a wide range of smaller and more niche online shops and stores. You name it, they’ve got it covered.

What if I forget to shop through easyfundraising? Not a problem! easyfundraising have designed two handy tools to help you remember: 1. Install the Donation Reminder onto your desktop in just a couple of clicks - it will then automatically highlight retailers where a donation is available while you’re browsing. 2. Download the easyfundraising app. You’ll be able to use the app whenever you shop from your mobile or tablet and know that you’ll never miss out on a donation.

We are always on the lookout for volunteers to help at our fundraising events.  You do not need to commit on a regular basis, but on an adhoc basis is appreciated.  We are sometimes asked to help serve refreshments at school events; drama productions, sports day etc. without our parent volunteers, school would not be able to run these events as they would like.  If you would like to volunteer, please do email us at: friends@ccs.northants.sch.uk

Or complete the attached volunteering form. Support CCS Form
