Designed for Friends of Parks and community green space groups
Friends of Parks groups play an important role protecting and improving parks, commons and community landscapes across the UK. Much of this work is powered by volunteers organising planting days, maintenance activities, local events and fundraising appeals.
Many groups still rely heavily on events, cash collections and occasional appeals. But supporters often want to donate outside those moments, after visiting the park, reading a social media post, or hearing about a new improvement project.
A clear online donation page gives people somewhere simple to give in those moments, helping turn community goodwill into practical support.
How Friends of Parks groups use Fundraisy
Friends of Parks groups use Fundraisy in different ways depending on how their community prefers to support local green spaces. Many begin with a simple donation page and expand from there.
- Park improvement projects — raise funds for planting, playground improvements, benches, signage or habitat restoration.
- Community events — share a QR code or donation link at open days, volunteer sessions and local festivals.
- Social media and local newsletters — give supporters a clear place to donate when they hear about your work.
- Ongoing park support — provide one simple donation link residents can use throughout the year.
Some groups keep things simple with one page, while others use Fundraisy alongside events and seasonal campaigns.
