Tick this box... if you'd like to opt out of being approached on the street by direct debit style charity fundraisers.
Tick this box... and make a promise you'll give to charities who encourage collection tins.
Tick this box... if you're interested in finding a different way to help charities to raise funds for much needed causes that avoid intrusive sales techniques and don't require you to give your bank details to strangers.
This group is set up to document this campaign and your experience of the "chugger." You can post images and your stories by joining the group and emailing in to tickthisbox@moblog.net
Buy your badge from http://www.zazzle.co.uk/tickthisbox, wear it around town to raise awareness of this opt-out scheme. The money raised from sales of badges will go back to charities with the message that we're keen for them to find other ways of raising money for charity that aren't dependent on the aggressive 'hard sell' tactics so commonly used today. When you receive your badge, use a marker pen to tick the box and you can begin opting out today. Post us your images of you in your badges!
