Volunteers raise money to beat blood cancer

i

If you receive any donations outside of any online fundraising pages that send us the funds directly, we ask that you send these funds to Blood Cancer UK within 30 days of your event. Prompt remittance allows us to put funds to use more quickly to support our mission to beat blood cancer.

Your fundraising, in aid of Blood Cancer UK, will be at your own risk and not covered by the Charity’s insurance. You’ll ensure that safety elements will be considered as part of the planning of your fundraising activity to keep participants safe and ensure an enjoyable event for all involved. Blood Cancer UK is not liable for any injuries, losses, or damages resulting from your fundraising activity.

You’ll abide by any local or national public health or safety guidance or restrictions applicable throughout the duration of your fundraising activity.

Your fundraising activity is an opportunity to raise awareness of blood cancer, and if broadcasting on social media or any other type of media, you’ll assess opportunities to share key messages, and always protect the Charity’s reputation.

By participating in fundraising activities, you agree to handle any personal data of donors, participants, or others involved in accordance with data protection laws.

You'll obtain all fundraising materials and logos directly from Blood Cancer UK, and not use or modify Blood Cancer UK's logos or name without Blood Cancer UK's express permission.

When you sign up to fundraise, you'll receive details of our online templating system, 'My Blood Cancer UK', where you can download the logos you need.

If you have any other questions about use of logos, email [email protected].

You will use only lawful methods to fundraise for Blood Cancer UK and will comply with the advice given in fundraising materials or directly from Blood Cancer UK.
