We're so grateful to every person who fundraises in memory of a loved one. It's a truly special way to remember and celebrate their life and change the lives of others affected by PSC.
When you make a gift in memory of a loved one, you can either make a one-off gift in their memory, or you can choose to set up a dedicated page to share their story and allow other to donate too.
You can share photos, your favourite memories and record how much you have raised.
Set up a special 'in memory' donations page with JustGiving by clicking the orange 'Start fundraising' button on the left hand side of this Just Giving page.
If you'd like some help, please get in touch.
You can choose from over 750 running and other events to take part in to raise funds for PSC Support. Sign up to our news bulletins to find out about new charity places we get.
London Marathon
PSC Support has a Silver Bond entitling us to buy one charity place in the London Marathon every 5 years (yes, they are pretty hard to get hold of, especially for small charities like ours!).
Great Run events
PSC Support enters the charity ballot each year for places in the Great Run events, such as the Great North Run and the Great South Run. There is a high demand for places but we are usually lucky and get some places each year. Any Great Run places we have will be listed on our Run for PSC Support page and announced in our news bulletin and on our social media pages.
Other events
Anyone can apply for a place in an organised run and choose to raise money for a charity. If you have plans to do this for PSC Support, don’t forget to let us know so we can support you with your fundraising.
Getting places in events: we strongly encourage you to enter public ballots to get your own place in these events and let us know if you are lucky enough to get one. We would love you to fundraise for us and join #TeamPSCSupport.
Congratulations on getting a place and thank you for thinking of PSC Support! We would love for you to join #TeamPSCSupport and fundraise for our charity.
In most organised challenge events, you can choose to run for and support PSC Support as an Own Place runner. There is no minimum fundraising pledge for own place runners; you can raise as much as you can.
Get started by clicking on the link below to let us know you'd like to join #TeamPSCSupport.
When you get a PSC Support charity place in an event such as a half marathon or a 10k, or you have your own place in one and pledge to fundraise for PSC Support, we'll send you a free PSC Support running top to wear with pride. We send the top to you about 4-6 weeks before your event or race and your fundraising is well under way. Make sure you let us know you have a place.
We'll also send you a PSC Support pin badge. These are not for sale and cannot be bought.
You can also buy running tops and other PSC Support gear on eBay:
You can find our PSC Suppor wristbands, extra running tops and other PSC Support merchandise on eBay.
Set up a JustGiving page to collect your sponsorship money and donations and it will automatically transfer to PSC Support. If you receive offline donations, you can pay them into PSC Support by post or online.
Be sure to let us know so we know who it is from. If you collect offline donations as well as via JustGiving, you can make a note on your Just Giving page so the total amount raised including your offline donations is displayed on the page.
Setting up a fundraising page is quick and easy. Click on 'the orange 'Start Fundraising' button to get started.
We are always extremely grateful to our fundraisers and aim to show our appreciation in any way we can. However, PSC Support is run by a very small team, so it is not always possible to attend events in person.
