A pledge is not a payment
The form on this page captures a non-binding indication of intent. You are not entering into a contract, you are not authorising a charge, and no money is taken at the point of pledging. You can change your mind at any time and we will never chase you for the amount.
The Big Give match
We aim to send you a donation link during the Big Give Champions for Children window (2 to 16 June 2026). Match funding is finite and is allocated by the Big Give on a first-come, first-served basis. We can't guarantee that match funds will still be available at the moment you click through, although we'll do our best to time the email for when they are.
Donations made outside the match window, or after match funds for FTBK have been exhausted, still benefit the charity in full but will not be doubled.
Gift Aid
Gift Aid can be claimed only on donations from UK income or capital gains taxpayers, and is added to your original donation (not to matched funds). By ticking the Gift Aid box you confirm that you are a UK taxpayer and that you understand that if you pay less Gift Aid in the relevant tax year than the amount FTBK and any other charities reclaim, it is your responsibility to pay the difference.
The ride itself
The 5 June 2026 ride is undertaken at the riders' own risk and is not a fundraising challenge event sold to participants. If the ride is cancelled, postponed, or shortened for any reason (weather, mechanicals, basic human limits), the pledge campaign and Big Give match still stand.
Charity status
Free To Be Kids is a registered charity in England and Wales (no. 1165678). All funds raised via pledges on this page, once donated through the Big Give link, go to FTBK and are spent in line with our charitable objects.
