Why do we need donations?

We are a local charity, run by local people, for local people.  We are able to operate on a minimal budget and are staffed mainly by trained Volunteer Advisers, which means that every donation we receive goes a long way.  But we urgently need to raise funds.

We are facing an increase in costs, including premises in Redhill and Banstead where in normal times we provide face-to-face advice.  We are also having to meet the cost of necessary updates to our servers.  This is putting a strain on finances just as demand for advice is rising with the growth of Universal Credit and the impact of Brexit and COVID-19

By making a donation, you will help keep this highly valued service running.

Easyfundraising is a simple and free to use fundraising tool. Get started by clicking here to get started with Citizens Advice Reigate and Banstead as your chosen cause, and raise money as you shop through thousands of retailers such as Amazon, M&S and Boots. As you spend money with your shopping, we receive donations from the retailers as a thank you, and we have already raised £852.98 through 45 supporters so far. Fundraising has never been easier!
