Help us speak up for Clinically Vulnerable families
People at highest clinical risk are being left behind. For many years we’ve worked without any funding, but we now urgently need your support to keep tackling the serious issues faced by Clinically Vulnerable people and their families.

Run by volunteers since 2020
Everything CVF has achieved, from the Covid Inquiry to our work on school guidance, has been done by volunteers, with no regular funding. No one is paid to work on it full time.
Your gift helps us:
- keep our website, support information and online support community running
- cover travel so Clinically Vulnerable people are seen and heard in person, not just online, in Parliament, at the Inquiry, and at Government meetings and events
- survey families and publish the evidence decision-makers ask for
- and, one day, fund someone to do this work full time.
Monthly gifts help most, because they let us plan ahead.
Ways to pay
Debit or credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Give once, or monthly. Payments are handled securely by Stripe – we never see or store your card details.
Donation FAQs
Is my donation secure?
Yes. Payments are handled by Stripe, a regulated payment provider, on this page. Your card details go straight to Stripe and never reach our website, and your bank may ask you to confirm the payment. You can pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay.
Can I add Gift Aid?
No. Clinically Vulnerable Families is a Community Interest Company (company number 16022972), not a registered charity, so donations are not eligible for Gift Aid.
How much can I give online?
From £3, up to £250 as a one-off gift or £50 a month. For larger gifts, please contact us.
What does covering the card fee mean?
Stripe charges a small fee on each payment. If you switch this on, we add an estimate of that fee to your gift, so Clinically Vulnerable Families CIC receives the full amount you chose. It’s entirely optional.
Will I get a receipt?
Yes. Stripe emails you a receipt for every payment. Your bank statement will show the payment as CLINICALLY VULNERABLE.
How do I change or cancel a monthly donation?
You can change or cancel it at any time: manage your monthly donation.
Would a break or a smaller amount help instead? We can pause your donation for up to six months, or lower it, whatever suits you. Just email info@clinicallyvulnerable.org with the subject “Monthly donation” and we’ll sort it.
I’ve made a mistake. Can I get a refund?
If you gave the wrong amount, gave twice or something went wrong, email info@clinicallyvulnerable.org within 14 days with the subject “Donation refund”. We’ll look into it and, where appropriate, refund it to the card you paid with.
I don’t recognise a payment
