What your fundraising supports
Your fundraising helps TNA continue practical support, trusted information and patient advocacy for people affected by trigeminal neuralgia and facial pain.
Fundraising helps keep support available when someone needs to talk, find information or feel less alone.
Support and connection
Helplines, friendship and peer support, regional groups and opportunities for people to connect with others who understand.
Trusted information
Practical information and resources for patients, carers, families, professionals and people newly facing a diagnosis.
A stronger patient voice
Awareness, education and work that brings patient experience into research, services and wider understanding of TN and facial pain.
Good to know
Before you fundraise
Do I need permission to fundraise for TNA?
Most personal fundraising is straightforward, but some activities can involve permissions or additional rules. Public collections, raffles or lotteries, events on someone else's premises and some larger activities may need extra checks. If you are unsure, contact us before you begin.
Can I use the TNA name or logo?
Please contact us if you need branded materials or want to use the TNA logo. We can help you present your fundraiser clearly and accurately.
What if my health limits what I can do?
Choose something that works for you. Fundraising does not have to be physical or demanding: a tea, quiz, birthday fundraiser, online challenge or creative activity can be just as valuable.
How do I pay in money I have collected?
If you are using an online fundraising platform, donations are handled through that platform. If you have collected money another way, contact TNA and we will give you the appropriate paying-in information.
