There are suspicious operators out there so it’s always best to be on guard. There are a few ways that you’re able to check our authenticity. First, all bags are distributed and collected by our branded Your Donation vans. Every collector has a certified identification card, which authorises them to collect on behalf of the charity concerned. Finally, a ‘Notifiable Solicitation Statement’ – which makes clear that we’re not authorised to take financial donations on behalf of the charity, and states the amount that the charity will receive – appears on all our bags.
