Other ways to give

If joining or holding your own event isn’t for you, there are a number of ways that you generate funds to help us continue our vital work.

Below are just some of the schemes in which you can get involved and raise funds for Group B Strep Support.

Clean out your cupboards and help GBSS – now you can sell practically anything on eBay and donate from 10% to 100% of the final sale to support our vital work.

The eBay for Charity service is free and is a simple way to make a contribution while also making something for yourself. You decide exactly what percentage of your final selling price you’d like to give to GBSS and what percentage you’d like for yourself.

Shop through Give as you Live and thousands of stores will donate a percentage of every gift you buy to charity – at no extra cost. It doesn’t get any easier than this to give money to charity.

You can even download a Give as you Live toolbar that tracks online purchases and raises money without you needing to do anything.
