Donate

Many of our supporters are familiar with JustGiving.com.

If you would like to donate to us directly via Just Giving, please use this link which ensures that we do not pay a fee on your donation, although there is a fee on the Gift Aid.

Alternatively, if you would like to raise money for us by running a marathon, reaching a summit (or two) or aiming to do something silly for money, you can link the donations directly to Patterdale Mountain Rescue via the “Fundraise For Us” button on our listing on the JustGiving site. JustGiving aims to make your fundraising as easy as possible and has all the social media connections to help you to make the most of your efforts.

Any amount, large or small, is always very much appreciated and we like to hear the stories behind your gifts too – a personal connection to our work, inspiration from a TV programme, a birthday collection, business fundraising or a school citizenship project. Please send cheques (payable to Patterdale Mountain Rescue Association) to The Treasurer, Patterdale MRA, Ogilvie House, Patterdale, Penrith, Cumbria CA11 0PJ. To pay direct, please use Sort code 20-66-97, Account Patterdale Mountain Rescue Association Ltd number 50218081 and let the Treasurer know to expect your donation by sending an email.

You can also securely donate by PayPal or by using your credit or debit card here. You don’t need a paypal account.

SPONSORED EVENTS
If you are planning a sponsored challenge or event, please let us know in advance and we can often help to publicise your efforts, make connections to your own online fundraising pages and reinforce your hard work. To help, you can also download a Patterdale MRA sponsorship form.

Or, if you have a car that needs scrapping, call 020 0011 1664 and Giveacar, a UK-based fundraising organisation, could help you to give up to £100 to Patterdale MRT AND ensure that your car is recycled as much as possible.

Making a Will is something that is private and important for everyone – to be sure that your wishes will be reflected in what happens after you die. Legacies and bequests are a valuable source of income for charities like us.

After providing for your loved ones, please consider leaving a legacy to Patterdale Mountain Rescue Association (the charity behind the Team). Any size or kind of gift, large or small, pays for the equipment and training our volunteers need to stay safe on the mountains and save more lives – today and into the future.
