Make the most of Sport Relief by treating yourself & others with these top tips — plus win £50,000 in our raffle
WE all enjoy saving cash but sometimes it can feel just as good to donate some to a good cause.
Sport Relief returns tonight and you can catch a dance-along featuring Love Island’s Curtis Pritchard and his Strictly star brother AJ, as well as watch your fave shows with a sporty twist.
The cash raised goes towards helping those living hard lives in the UK and you can donate at . When your own budget is tight, it makes things harder. But you can treat yourself and others with these tricks.
SWITCH IT UP: One way to save extra cash is to switch bank accounts. The NatWest Reward account offers £175 (if you switch by April 2 and pay in £1,500) plus you can earn £3 per month if you have two direct debits of £2 or more. One way to cover that is to set up small direct debits to charities.
LET'S GET PHYSICAL: To up your fitness game, why not download the Sweatcoin app? Earn Sweat Coins as you exercise (even walking) and it converts them into discounts for brands, and there is the option to donate to charity. It’s a small amount, but every little really does help!
GIVE FOR FREE: TheGivingMachine lets you support charities of your choice by generating commission for them when you shop. There are some 2,200 retailers you can shop with via TheGivingMachine, which earns a commission, with up to 70 per cent going to charity.
KINDRED: Fancy earning cashback on everyday purchases? Shop through the Kindred app and you can donate your cashback to charity.
WIN BIG: Why not take part in the Sport Relief Prize-a-thon? It has some amazing prizes every week, such as VIP tickets to see JLS. There’s also the opportunity to watch a WWE live show with a backstage meet-and-greet. You can enter the draw as many times as you like with entries costing £10, which all goes to Sport Relief.
