Donate

Financial Donations

Our group tries to work primarily off of either our own contributions or the generous donations of those who wish to support us.

If you are interested in donating to the club to support our events, please feel free to reach out to us at youthcontesting.uk+donate@gmail.com. 

Donations are primarily used to cover costs, site fees of stations, and any resources the club purchases for trips. This does include food and travel costs for the participants where the budget allows, as it makes the events more viable for the participants. 

Donations made below go into a general club account, any major events (such as DXPeditions) will have fundraising separately, however the club may choose to make a donation from its own funds to the event if our financial situation at the time allows.

Station Donations

Whilst not a donation in the typical sense, if you would be willing to permit us to come and operate a contest from your station please reach to us. We primarily contest in a multi op setup, our main experience is with multi-1 but we would be willing to broaden our horizons if the opportunity arose!

For stations in the UK please contact us at youthcontesting.uk+host@gmail.com

For stations in Ireland please contact us at youthcontesting.uk+ei@gmail.com

For stations anywhere else please contact us at youthcontesting.uk+dx@gmail.com

In your email please include the contest you propose we visit for, details of your station (setup, bands available, anything else you believe is notable), and any suggestions for transport and accommodation (we are happy to arrange these ourselves if needed, we just appreciate the local knowledge)!

Equipment Donations

The club currently doesn't have it's own premises. Whilst offers of equipment donation are very generous, as we do not have somewhere to put it we try to avoid accepting these offers directly (although we may do in exceptional circumstances). 

In the mean time, we are willing to share any information of either reasonably priced sales or offers of donation to our network of youth members for their own personal use.

For any enquiries relating to equipment please contact youthcontesting.uk+equipment@gmail.com
