Are you shopping online?
Fundraise for us when you do.
If you are planning to do any internet shopping, there is an easy way you can generate income to a charity with no additional cost to yourself.
Next time you buy something on the internet, simply go to easyfundraising.org.uk first, register for an account and go to the internet shop from there. There are over 4000 internet retailers to shop with, including Sainsburys, Tesco, Asda, Morrisons, Ocado and Waitrose.
Alternatively if shopping on amazon, you can simply go to smile.amazon.co.uk and 0.5% from each eligible purchase will go to the charity of your choice.
This free online course is part of the legacy of the Reboot project, a project funded by The Good Things Foundation and headed by national Mind. The aim is to reduce the fear and confusion around smart devices and digital tools.
As a community, we can all help make simple changes to improve people’s lives.
Don’t worry if you’re not an expert in using digital technology – if you use a smart phone, have ever shopped online, or use emails to communicate then you’re already using your smarts!
In this course, you will:
– Discover the knowledge you already have
– Learn the importance of sharing your knowledge with others
– Understand how easy it is to make positive changes
– Find resources you can use and recommend
