Switchandgive have increased the amount to £18 to celebrate the children’s charity’s 18th birthday this month. Indeed, the site, set up by Fundraising Innovations Ltd, will pay £18 per fuel for every customer who switches to a cheaper energy supplier via their service.
Mark Todd, director at switchandgive.com, commented: “We’re really pleased to be able to support ChildLine in this way. Switchandgive.com has already donated over £60,000 to charity, so hopefully we can donate a significant sum to ChildLine as it celebrates 18 years of supporting children with its counselling service.”
