Donating to the Olive Tree

Donate

We are an independent charity that relies upon donations and fundraising to allow us to carry out our vital work. We simply could not do what we do without your continuing support. Every donation is appreciated, however small or large. All donations help towards maintaining and improving our services and our ability to support cancer patients and their families, friends and carers.

Online Shopping

Fundraise while you shop online!

Online shopping is a great way to donate to the Olive Tree. We have signed up with Amazon Smile, a new service from Amazon, which is a simple and automatic way for you to support a charity of your choice every time you shop at Amazon. Amazon donates 0.5% of the net purchase price (excluding VAT, returns and shipping fees) of eligible purchases to the charitable organisation of your choice and you can select the Olive Tree Cancer Support Group as the charity to which you would like your donations to go. 

To shop at Amazon Smile go to smile.amazon.co.uk and, on your first visit, select the charitable organisation to receive donations from your eligible purchases before you start shopping.  To ensure your donations go to the Olive Tree please select “The Olive Tree Cancer Support Group” from the list of eligible charities.  You can use your existing Amazon account, so there is no need to change any settings.  Please visit smile.amazon.co.uk for further information.

From time to time we have been chosen as a local charity partner by stores including Waitrose and Coop and hope that this will continue to be the case.  Details of how you can support us in such cases will be published on this website and our social media platforms.

Celebration gifts

If you are celebrating a significant birthday or anniversary you might like to consider asking your friends to make a donation to the Olive Tree in lieu of presents. Please contact the centre and we will provide you with a supply of pre-printed envelopes for use at the event. Alternatively, please ask your friends and family to use one of the payment methods listed below.

JustGiving

One of the simplest ways to donate to the Olive Tree is to visit our JustGiving page. Donations made via JustGiving are quick, simple and secure and 100% goes to the Olive Tree. JustGiving automatically reclaims 25% in Gift Aid on UK donations on behalf of the Olive Tree which helps to make donations go that bit further.

Legacies

A gift in your will, no matter how small, can make a vital difference to someone living with cancer. We channel every penny we receive into our cancer support services, and you can be confident that your gift will have a real impact, both now and in the future.

Please make cheques payable to 'Olive Tree Cancer Support Group' and send to Olive Tree Cancer Support Centre, Crawley Hospital, West Green Drive, Crawley, West Sussex RH11 7DH.  If you prefer to donate via BACS, please contact us for our account details.
