Donating online

There are several ways to make a donation online.

Amazon Smile

Amazon offers a mechanism to support a charity of your choosing and we are registered on there. Every time you shop via smile.amazon.co.uk rather than just amazon.co.uk they donate a portion (0.5%) of your order to us.

It is simple to set up:

  1. Visit smile.amazon.co.uk
  2. Sign in with your usual amazon credentials.
  3. Chose a charitable organisation to receive donations. You will need to search for us on there.
  4. Select Reading Association for the Blind.
  5. Use smile.amazon.co.uk for future amazon orders!
