Text to donate

Text giving is a quick and easy way to help transform the future for all those affected by pancreatic cancer.

All you need to do is send a text message from your mobile phone to a special, five-digit text message number. The donation gets added to your pay monthly bill or taken off your pay as you go credit.

You can choose one of the following options:

  • Text 7PCUK to 70085 to donate £7 and to receive further information and marketing.
  • Text 5PCUK to 70085 to donate £5 and to receive further information and marketing.
  • Text 10PCUK to 70085 to donate £10 and to receive further information and marketing.

To donate and receive no future marketing messages and opt-out from any further contact text 7PCUKNOINFO or 5PCUKNOINFO or 10PCUKNOINFO

Messages will cost the donation amount plus one standard network rate message.

Unless otherwise stated, there will be no refunds for the cost of any SMS donation made, or for any misdialled short codes or misspelled keywords.
All supporters must obtain permission from the bill payer before sending a text message. If you are under 16 years old, you must have your parent or guardian’s permission before signing up to our campaigns.
