What is crowdfunding?
Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.

Story
Bingham Penguins is a disability swimming club that supports children and vulnerable adults with a wide range of needs. The club is run entirely by a team of volunteers including an experienced and qualified poolside team. Young people from local schools provide support and encouragement to our swimmers. Some of the swimmers compete at regional and national events. The club is a fully registered charity and has the SwimMark accreditation. The club needs additional funding to provide these sessions. On April 29th 2018, I will be abseiling from The Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth. I will be joined by my friends Simon Sailsbury, Matt Talbot and Simon Talbot who are also supporting Bingham Penguins in this fundraising effort. Your support will be gratefully received by the club.

1 month agoHi everyone! Thanks for all the generous donations that have come in so far. I know everyone at Bingham Penguins will be very grateful for your kindness. It's just over a month now until myself, Matt Talbot, Simon Talbot and Simon Sailbury abseil from the Spinnaker Tower. We're really looking forward to it! It would be great if we could have some more donations to help us reach or even exceed our £500 target. Matt
