Fundraising puzzles

[wheaten]

Where can I get a list of these charity/fundraising puzzles that some of you do? (I know there is a website called Fundraising Quizzes) Is it worth sending a cheque for £1 or so when it must cost more to process the cheque these days? Is there a central 'processing' place that collects them all together and can send you several at once? Can I find out if there are local ones in my area, say, so I know that money is going to my own community or to a charity I would like to support? How does a charity know that a copy isn't going to be copied and passed on?

My mum sends me her local one every Christmas but I would like to do more, even if I don't finish or send it back.

Many thanks

if you dont want to send a cheque , just send a pound coin as long as its taped to the quiz or some paper i find its ok never had any trouble anyway.

There are some quizzes advertised in the first post at the top of this page.

Many thanks,
I'll have a search through them. I'd rather send a pound coin + sae, or a bigger donation if I supported the cause. I am a sucker though for trolley tokens etc in charity shops, must find out if there is a collectors club!

wheaten I find two fifty pence coins taped to a piece of card slightly less bulky in the envelope, and be aware these quizzes become quite addictive LOL
Have fun.

Officially 2 x 50p and a £1 coin are too thick for the first class slot.
I know lots of you are still getting away with it but 5 x 20p are the only coins that really go through cos it has to drop through not be pushed through
