Go to their websites through ours by clicking on the shop you want. A percentage of your shopping bill will then come to The Friends of the Rosie Hospital as a donation.

“In the current financial climate we know that every penny counts so we’re not asking people to donate, just to shop online as they normally would this Christmas. But instead of going directly the retailer website, if they go via easyfundraising.org.uk first, their gift purchases will turn into donation for us.

Almost all of us shop online these days so what could be easier than raising funds simply doing your Christmas shopping online?

Featuring over 2000 of the UK’s most popular retailers including Amazon, M&S, Argos, Boden, Tesco and many more, easyfundraising has already helped UK causes raise almost £4 million.

Not only will Friends of the Rosie Hospital receive donations for every purchase you make via easyfundraising, you’ll also get one entry, for every purchase you make before midnight 17th December, to win a share of £5,000! Get shopping early for Christmas at http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/forh and win yourself some cash for 2013.”
