Making a donation

Although much of our funding comes from statutory authorities and other funding bodies as a charity we can always make effective use of donations.

Send a cheque is probably the easiest way to donate. If you wish to donate by cheque please make it payable to 'Carers in Bedfordshire' and send it to the address below.

Carers in Bedfordshire, Suite K, Sandland Court, Pilgrim Centre, Brickhill Drive, Bedford MK41 7PZ

Please remember that providing you pay income tax at the standard rate you can make a gift aid donation which is particularly useful as the government then gives us a further 28%

If you would like to discuss other ways of making a donation please contact us.

Carers in Bedfordshire's 7 Seater People Carrier

We purchased a 7 seater people carrier in August 2010. In the first year we made a minimum saving of £1600 by using it as a staff pool vehicle and as transport for our carers to reduce mileage claims and taxi charges. We expect to see a higher saving in our second year.  

Thank you to:

Malcolm Good, Branch Manager of Formula One Autcentre who has continually supported Carers in Bedfordshire with excellent service and maintentance of our people carrier.
