Ways to transfer your raised funds to Cumbria Wildlife Trust
Transferring your raised funds
So, you’ve collected all your sponsorship and counted up the pennies and pounds and you want to transfer it so it can start working for wildlife! There’s a number of ways you can do this. Wherever possible, we ask you to donate online, if that’s not possible we also have other options.
Whatever approach you take, please contact us email (Fundraising@CumbriaWildlifetrust.org.uk) or give us a call on 01539 816300 to let us know what to expect, this makes it much easier for us to deal with it efficiently.
If possible, please email a copy of your donation form if you've used one as we may be able to claim some gift aid via the small donation scheme.
Online fundraising and social media pages
For online donations that you've raised via JustGiving, Facebook or Instagram, you don’t need to do anything, other than thank your supporters - all funds including gift aid will make their way to us automatically.
Via bank transfer
To pay in a lump sum of donations from a fundraising event that hasn't been processed via JustGiving, please use the following details for Bacs:
Account Name: Cumbria Wildlife Trust Ltd
Sort Code: 01-09-75
Account No: 75824612
Reference: Please ensure you include a reference e.g. ‘COMM FR J Larkin’ .
Cheque
You can send a cheque for the final amount, made payable to 'Cumbria Wildlife Trust', and post to: Cumbria Wildlife Trust, Plumgarths, Crook Road, Kendal, Cumbria, LA8 8LX. Please include a note with the cheque outlining what fundraising it is connected to.
Cash
If a cheque isn’t possible either, and you live locally, please consider dropping your collection box or envelopes at one of our offices. We ask that you telephone beforehand to ensure someone is there to meet you. (Please don’t send cash in the post. If it's not convenient for you to drop it off, please consider counting it, paying it into your bank and then transferring the funds electronically to us - see 'Bank transfer' above).
We operate Monday - Friday 9am - 5pm, but our office opening hours can vary slightly.
