As you all probably know, AF Association relies on funding, donations and grants. We are not funded by the government in any way. The funding and fundraising at the moment has all but stopped.

Did you know you can now donate up to £20.00 by text?

Simply text ATRIAL followed by how much you'd like to donate to 70085

for example, ATRIAL 5 will give us £5.00

Texts cost the donation plus one standard rate message.

You can also set up monthly donations through text.

Send AFIB followed by how much you'd like to donate to 70085 for example, AFIB 5 will give us £5 per month.

Texts cost the donation plus two standard rate messages.

We know that times are very difficult for everyone, but if you can, please donate to ensure our much used helpline can continue

Thank you in advance for your ongoing support.

Hi Rachel, I find it difficult to donate by text and Just Giving always rejects my offerings. Is there another way? I greatly appreciate this website and want to keep it going.

Hi Rachel;

both Groundwork and Semple have provided grants to volunteer groups that I've worked with. Groundwork groundwork.org.uk are currently providing £500 grants to groups supporting vulnerable people affected by COVID-19.

Kind regards

John

Hi Rachel, try Semple at semple.org too. I've found Groundwork and Semple great to work with.

Keep well

John

I am a member in the USA, and and so very glad to have found this group. I would like to help with a donation. How can I do this? By the way it was so calming to hear the address from the Queen. So much better than anything coming from the White House here in the States.

Thank you,

We have a PayPal account for the US side of the charity too...

paypal.com/donate/?token=Bo...

This will direct you to our US PayPal account and funds will go directly to AF Association US
