Not sure if I’m posting this in the correct slot :thinking:

Anyway, here goes - I’m currently contemplating doing a trek at the start of next year for a UK charity, so I was just looking at the Just Giving website for collecting donations and it appears you can only set up an account if you’re resident in the UK, US or Australia, as far as I can see.

I’d be very interested to hear if anyone living in France has managed to use Just Giving, or if anyone has used any other similar sites they can suggest.

Thanks for any input, as a bit of head scratching going on to get this solved :+1::+1:

I think GoFundMe operates across the chasm that divides the Uk from the rest of the world

Great thanks - Just taking a quick look it appears when you set up the site the collection currency is based on your residence location, so I’ll have to see if I can set up in France and base it on sterling, given the charity’s UK based.

But at least it’s possible to set up in France :+1::+1::+1:
