No app to download and no account needed, supporters just follow the link, see who they're sponsoring and give in a few taps, all from a browser on their phone.

Entry fees do a job: they cover costs and get people signed up, but they're rarely where the bulk of the money comes from.

For a group of 100 at a £5 entry fee, that's £500.

Add individual sponsorship pages at £30 average per participant, and the same event raises closer to £3,500 in total.

The extra doesn't come from the event working harder. It comes from more people getting the chance to give.

Paper forms tend to reach whoever's in the room: parents, close family, whoever's at pickup.

Grandparents, aunts, uncles and family friends who'd happily give a few pounds either never see the form or don't have cash on them when they do, so parents end up quietly covering the gap themselves.

Send the link instead and everyone who wasn't going to be there can be asked properly and give from their phone in a few taps.

No fastest time. No leaderboard. Just everyone, covered in colour, in the same event.

Colour runs work for everyone: every age, every pace, all taking part in the same event.

Give every participant their own page to share, and the photos and excitement do a lot of the fundraising for you.

Our guide covers the powder, the safety, the route and the setup.

The paper form goes home in the bag on Friday. Some of them get lost, the sponsorship promised never arrives and parents end up covering the shortfall themselves.

An online sponsorship page means supporters can give the moment they're asked on their phone.

Parents can share it in a WhatsApp message to grandparents, family and friends who would never have been asked otherwise.

No cash to collect, no forms to chase.

If your supporters are UK taxpayers, their donations could be worth 25% more, at no extra cost to you.

When you set up with Fun Run UK, you can turn on Gift Aid in your account settings.

We then ask supporters if they're eligible when they sponsor, so your treasurer doesn't have to chase the paperwork.

Another way Fun Run UK helps you raise more with less admin.
