Why do we need your support?
Our current funding won’t allow us to maintain the basic services which are essential to sex workers’ health and safety and advocate for sex workers. Your contribution could help us maintain essential services and support to one of the most vulnerable groups in our society.
Regular donors
Stand up, Fairy Godfathers and Sugar Mummies!
We have now launched a regular Standing Order donation scheme. SCOT-PEP only needs 200 people to give us £10 a month to enable us to continue to provide the current level of support and services.
To become a Fairy Godfather or Sugar Mummy simply download and complete the Standing Order and Gift Aid form and post it to SCOT-PEP. Click here to download the form.
If you wish to encourage your friends and family to support SCOT-PEP you can download our SEEKING FAIRY GODFATHERS and SUGAR MUMMIES leaflet.
(The form and the leaflet are both in PDF format so you will need Adobe Reader to view it. If you for whatever reason can't install the software, contact us and we can send a form to your postal address.)
