Support & Contribution
 

We keep very stringent and transparent records, and accounts, of our donor and sponsor endorsement - we are members of the fundraising regulator self-regulatory scheme. The Fundraising Regulator works to ensure that organisations raising money from the public do so honestly and properly.

 

All expenditure, from donor and sponsor endorsements, is visually documented i.e. accounts and photographic presentation is made available, so we can make sure every pound, euro and/or dollar is used directly for project purposes!

Sponsorship does not equal influence. SUWC is fully independent, and guided by science and community integrated opinion!
