Donate
Give to the research, and to the people it reaches.
AURIS is built from lived experience and ongoing research into identity after major life change. Giving pays for that research and for free access to the learning that comes out of it.
Giving is handled by our fundraising campaign. No card details are entered on this site.
What your donation pays for
- Free community access
- Free Academy places for people referred through a partner organisation, so cost is never the reason someone stops.
- Delivery on the ground
- Facilitation, travel, room costs and printed materials for sessions run with Trafford Veterans CIC, Out in the Bay and Red Rose Recovery.
- The research programme
- Interview transcription, analysis time and publication costs for Identity After the Uniform, the study the courses are built from.
- Keeping the platform open
- Hosting, accessibility work and maintenance, so the free first course stays free and stays online.
What giving does not buy
- Nothing on AURIS is unlocked by giving. The free courses are free whether you donate or not.
- Nobody is asked to give in order to be supported. AURIS never monetises vulnerability.
- Giving is handled by our fundraising campaign, so no card details are entered on this site.
- What donations pay for is published, and what the research does and does not show is published with it.
You can read what the research currently supports in the Evidence Hub, see the work still to come on the research campaign page, and meet the delivery partners on the partners and donations page.
Other ways to help
If giving money is not right for you, there are other ways to make the work reach further.
- Share a course or an article with someone who would find it useful.
- List a verified group, event or opportunity in Connect & Discover, so people can find real support near them.
- Talk to us about delivering AURIS work with your organisation on the contact page.
Thank you for keeping this work open.
Donations pay for interviews, analysis and open publication, and for free community access to the learning that comes out of it.
