Collection Tin Agreement Form 

Collection tins can be a great tool for fundraising if you are holding a fundraising event or having a static collection in a public place like a bar or shop. It is important for Mind in Bradford, and the volunteers and supporters who represent us, to carry out collections with the highest standards and comply with the Fundraising Code of Practice.

Returning your Collection Tin

We would expect for your collection tin to be returned after three months of this being sent out to you. 
 
After 3 months, a member of our team will be in contact to discuss arranging the return of your tin or bucket or providing an extension. 

If you have a static collection you will be contacted after 6 months. 
 
If your tin/bucket is full before this time please contact our team by email on [email protected]
