Think of VWD when you get your first fiver

New King Charles III Banknotes: A Chance to Support Veterans With Dogs

Exciting news! The new banknotes featuring the portrait of King Charles III have now entered circulation. While it might take a while before you get your hands on one, we have a special request for when you do.

Join the #FirstFiver Campaign

Inspired by the #FirstFiver campaign started by fundraiser John Thompson in 2016, we invite you to donate your first King Charles £5 note (or any higher denomination) to Veterans With Dogs. This campaign encourages people to donate their first polymer banknote to charities and spread the word on social media.

How You Can Help

When you spot your first King Charles £5 note, consider donating it to Veterans With Dogs. If you're feeling extra generous, higher denomination notes are also welcome! Your contributions help us continue our vital work in providing mental health assistance dogs to veterans of the British Armed Forces.

How to Donate

Please do not send cash in the post. Instead, you can donate using the link below. If you participate, mention @veteranswithdogs in your social media posts and use the hashtag #FirstFiver to spread the word.

Thank you for your support! Together, we can make a difference.
