Check it out NOW and join up Donate to the school at no extra cost to yourself!  All you have to do is sign up here and register as a giver, specifying St Richard's as your charity.  Then, every time you purchase a product from a participating retailer, via TheGivingMachine™, they will pay a commission in the form of a cash donation to the school.

It really is that easy: you are buying the same products, at the same price, on the same shopping websites as if you went direct but the difference is, by shopping via TheGivingMachine™, you generate free cash donations at no extra cost to you personally.

All major retailers participate including Amazon, Tesco (non-grocery), iTunes, John Lewis, M & S, Argos, Sainsburys, Boots, Currys, Debenhams, ELC, White Stuff and over 400 more!

All of the participating shops have agreed to pay a commission in the form of a cash donation every time you click on their link and buy a qualifying product from them. If you do not access the online shop via the links on TheGivingMachine™, then the donation will not be triggered and the school will not get their donation.

Make a donation using Virgin Money Giving There are two ways you can donate to the Appeal: either as a one-off or by regular payments.  Both types of payments can be made via Virgin Money Giving but please be aware that giving online, while being a superb and efficient way of doing so, does mean that we get approximately 5% less of your donation.

Alternatively, download our donation form, fill it in, including the Gift Aid section if appropriate (we can claim another 25% of your donation from HMRC if you do), and return it (with a cheque if it's a one-off) to The Appeal, St Richard’s, Bredenbury Court, Bromyard, Herefordshire HR7 4TD.  Please make your cheque payable to St Richard’s Appeal Fund.
We launched the St Richard’s Appeal with the improvement of Hirons Hall very much at the forefront of our minds and that is why it is so exciting to be able to tell you that we are not far from reaching our first financial target and actually being able to start work on the Hall.

We aim to make Hirons Hall a drier and warmer environment and enable it to be usable all year round.  The work to Hirons will include a new roof and cross-boarding of the existing Yorkshire boarding (the slats around the top of the wall).  This will make it both windproof and leak-free!

We hope to do these improvements over the summer holidays.  However, work cannot be started, builders cannot be booked, until we have all the money in the pot.  To date we have raised just over £30,000 and we need to push this up to £43,600 before we can go ahead.

We ask that you please continue to support us on the last rung of this steep ladder.  There are several ways you can do this: with a straight donation or a standing order, either direct to us or via Virgin Money Giving; through sponsorship/support of the various events we organise; or via TheGivingMachine - whereby you give to us for free simply by shopping online.  You can also contribute to the Appeal by offering to help with a fundraising event – all suggestions are most welcome.  For these and any other ideas or questions please contact us on at appeal@st-richards.org.uk.

We thank you so much for your support and truly hope that together we can see the first phase of the St Richard’s Appeal completed by the end of 2013.
