1. Go to https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/409thmanchesters/ and join for FREE!
2. Every time you shop online, go to easyfundraising first to find the site you want and start shopping.
3. After you’ve checked out, the retailer will make a donation to the 409th Manchester Scout Group at no extra cost to you whatsoever!

There are no catches or hidden charges and the 409th Manchester Scout Group will be really grateful for your donations.
