Leaving a legacy:

Many of you reading our website will already be fully aware that adoption is a lifelong journey. Whatever role adoption has played in your life, I can say with confidence that it will have been life-changing. We are grateful every year to those who, acknowledging the importance of adoption in their lives, include a gift to the benefit of PAC-UK in their will. Would you consider doing the same when you come to draw up your will? If you require help or advice on this matter, please contact us.Heather Kearney, Head of Fundraising


Leaving a legacy


Help PAC-UK when you shop 

Easy Fundraising helps charities to raise money when their supporters shop online. It works in a similar way to many other loyalty shopping sites, but instead of earning points when you shop, you raise a donation for PAC-UK instead. It's as simple as that! You can shop with over 2,000 well known stores and each will donate up to 15% of what you spend. For example, John Lewis & Partners will donate 1%, Amazon 1.5%, The Body Shop 6%, some insurance retailers will even donate up to £30 simply for taking out a policy with them! It only takes 2 minutes to fill in the registration form and you're good to go!


Help PAC-UK when you recycle

Recycle4Charity: Do you have a problem knowing what to do with your used inkjet cartridges and unwanted mobile phones? We've found a way to take them off your hands, and earn money for PAC-UK! Contact us for your free supply of envelopes, so you need never send another cartridge or mobile to landfill again! Simply pop your used mobile phones inside, drop it in the postbox (postage is free!) and PAC-UK will receive on average between £3.00-£5.00 for each mobile you send away to be recycled. Inkjet cartridges can also be sent (not via Freepost) – direct to the PAC-UK office please. Alternatively, you can register with recycle4charity and choose PAC-UK as your charity so you can keep track of the money you have raised and have the free pre-paid envelopes sent directly to you.


Support PAC-UK via fundraising events

Whether you want to climb a mountain, sail around the globe, or just have a tea party, we would be thrilled if you nominate us as your beneficiary. Your sponsors can support you either offline or through a donation page which can be set up to benefit PAC-UK. We’re happy to advise you on any initiative, and promote it for you when we can.

We arrange participation in some key challenges throughout the year – we currently have places available for Race to the Tower (June 2023), the Brighton Marathon (September 2023), the Great North Run (September 2023) and the Virgin Money London Marathon (October 2023).
