Monthly giving
A small amount, every month, is the most useful gift we get
Regular donations let us promise money to a project before it starts. Here is exactly how a plan works, and a short form to set one up.
How a monthly plan works
- 01
You choose the amount
Anything from £5 to £100 a month, or a figure of your own. Small and steady is genuinely more useful to us than large and occasional.
- 02
The payment is set up once
You set it up on our secure giving page, which passes on 100% of what you give. Nothing is taken from this page — we only save your plan so we know to expect you.
- 03
We plan around it
Regular income is what lets us promise a researcher £20,000 over two years rather than hoping the money turns up. It is the difference between funding a project and talking about one.
- 04
You hear what happened
A couple of short updates a year, written by a person, about the projects your money paid for. No glossy mailings, no phone calls.
- 05
You change or stop it whenever
Cancel from your bank or by emailing us — no conversation required, no guilt trip. Pausing for a few months is completely normal.
What different amounts add up to
Honest estimates from the grants we have actually made, not marketing figures.
- £5 a month
- Over a year, the plain-English health guides one family reads before an appointment.
- £15 a month
- A share of the lab consumables for a pilot study — the costs nobody likes to fund.
- £40 a month
- Across twelve months, a day of specialist clinical time reviewing a diagnostic test.
- £100 a month
- A meaningful slice of a full grant, and enough for us to commit to it in advance.
You can see every project and its budget on the grants page.

Questions people ask us
- Is any of it taken in fees?
- No. Our giving platform passes on 100% of what you give, and our founders cover Duet's running costs.
- Can I change the amount later?
- Yes, any time — email us or change it with your bank. Nothing to explain.
- Will I be asked for more?
- No. Two short updates a year is the whole of it.
Small charity, practical help
Duet is funded by our founders and by people who believe useful research should not stall for want of a modest amount of money. Every gift goes into projects.
