If you do wish to donate via cheque, please consider the following guidance:
- Banks recommend that cheques should be written using indelible ink such as a ballpoint pen and that a line should be drawn through all unused spaces. Banks also recommend that when filling in a cheque individuals should aim to fill the whole cheque, writing from the very left in large text.
- Banks advise to never to leave a space between the “£” and amount total.
- Bank statements should be monitored to keep track of cheque payments.
- If a supporter notices a transaction on their account that they do not recognise we advise them to contact their bank immediately and report the case to the police through Action Fraud by calling 0300 123 2040 or via actionfraud.police.uk.
