Just Giving

Visit JustGiving and click ‘Start Fundraising’, choose the fundraising for a charity option (you’ll need to sign up for an account if you don’t already have one) and search for St Helena Hospice. From the ‘what are you doing’ options choose the most relevant option for your fundraising. If you're taking part in one of our events choose 'Taking part in an event' and you'll be able to select the exact event from a list. You’ll have the option to add details if you’re fundraising in memory of someone and change your page’s URL name.

Once you’ve accepted JustGiving’s terms and conditions you can edit your page to add some details about why you’re fundraising, set a fundraising target, and tell your story. You can also change your cover image if you’d like.

Connect Strava to your JustGiving

If your fundraiser involves walking, running, cycling or another physical activity you can connect your JustGiving page to the Strava app to track distances and post updates to your page.

Strava is an app for iOs (iPhone & iWatch) and Android devices which can be used to track physical activity, and you can connect your JustGiving page to the Strava app to share activity with your sponsors.

To set up the connection, login to your JustGiving account and open your fundraising page. Scroll down slightly and select the orange ‘Connect Strava’ button. Login, or register with Strava (it’s free!). Confirm your permissions and save your preferences.

Remember to download the Strava app to your phone, take it with you and start tracking when you start the walk.

Facebook Fundraisers

If you have a Facebook account, you can create a fundraising page and your friends and family on Facebook will be notified that you’ve set it up. Simply visit the St Helena Hospice Facebook fundraiser page (if you aren’t logged into Facebook on the device you’re using to create your fundraiser you’ll be prompted to login).

You can choose a picture we’ve uploaded to our Facebook page or add one of your own, change your fundraiser name and details, tell everyone why you’re fundraising for St Helena Hospice, set a fundraising goal and end date. You’ll be able to add pictures and messages to your fundraiser just like you would a Facebook page.

Timeless Tributes

If you’re fundraising in memory of a loved one, why not set up a Timeless Tribute page to collect your fundraising. This is a page that you can personalise for your loved one and share photos, videos and memories. You can add the details of your challenge to your page and share it in the same way as other online giving sites. It’s very quick and simple to set up, just visit our Timeless Tributes page and complete the form at the bottom of the page.

If you’ve collected money offline as well as online, you may wish to visit our how to pay in your fundraising page.
