Your financial contribution, however small, will make a difference.
Counselling at the PF is always offered on an 'ability to pay' basis. Our aim is to provide quality counselling, which is available to all members of the community and which is affordable. We are also always aiming to improve the service that we offer to our clients wherever possible.
At the moment it costs the PF around £40 to provide each hour of counselling. Many of our clients are unable to pay even our suggested minimum contribution of £15 per session. Our policy of never turning anyone away because of financial limitations means we are always left with a 'gap to bridge'. We do not receive any regular funding from outside sources and rely solely on our own fundraising efforts and client donations as well as the generosity of individuals who decide to give to the PF either on a one-off or regular basis.

Making a Regular Donation
If you would like to support the PF on a regular basis then you may wish to
consider giving an amount every month, quarter or year. This is really
helpful to us in meeting our regular financial needs.
Gift Aid
Any UK taxpayer who makes a donation towards our work can increase their
donation without it costing them any extra! We can reclaim the income tax
which you have already paid on the donation amount by utilising the Gift Aid
Scheme. Since the current basic rate of income tax is 22% we are able to
claim back 28p for every £1 donated.
To maximise your donation in this way, you need to complete a brief and
simple Gift Aid Declaration Form. You can obtain a form from our office, or
download it by clicking one of these images (Word document of PDF file):
