How you can help

Volunteers

We always welcome any help parents, carers and friends of the school can give us. There are normally lots of events during the year, both large and small, and their success relies on the assistance of volunteers! If you would like to be involved in any way, please drop us an email!

Friends of Uley School are registered for Gift Aid, which allows us to maximise your donations by claiming an extra 25p for every £1 you donate at no extra cost to you.

Matched funding

If you work for an organisation that has a match funding policy, any money you raise could be matched by your employer. Usually, the employee will need to supply them with a letter from FUS detailing the date and nature of the event, together with the total raised.

Check if your employer has a match funding scheme, or if they are willing to match fund any of our events. This could be a significant source of income for Friends of Uley School.
