We are very excited to be able to announce that we are fundraising in partnership with one of the charities that Phil is patron of.

Momentum is a charity working locally in Surrey and South West London, supporting families whose children have cancer or a life-limiting condition.

To help our fundraising efforts, Phil has kindly donated an original Life on Mars script (for Series 2, Episode 4) signed by himself and co-star, John Simm. This was Phil’s own copy of the script and may contain notes about filming and dialogue changes.

The script is currently being auctioned through eBay, with a starting price of £100. THe auction will end on 27th Jun, 2016 at 12:29 pm BST.

All proceeds from this auction with go straight to Momentum to provide individually-tailored support through their family support programme, (offering emotional and practical help as well as a range of therapy services including music, dance and drama), to provide trips, treats and respite holidays to improve the facilities and healing environment for children during hospital stays.
If you are unable to bid for the script, please do consider making a small, one-off donation to support the work of this fantastic charity. (If you do this, be sure to mention the Fansite in the message box so we can keep a total of how much we have raised).

We are pleased to announce that, thanks to visitors to this site buying through our online shop (in partnership with Amazon), we have today made a donation of £50 to Momentum, a charity of which Philip is patron, that aims to help children undergoing treatment for cancer in Surrey and Greater London.

On the Momentum donation page, it is possible to leave a comment when you make a donation. We indicated that the donation was made on behalf of Philip by visitors to this website. Unfortunately, this remark is not shown in the above acknowledgment. 

We don't know who you are, but we wish to say a massive THANK YOU to all the fans who have made purchases from our fansite shop. Your support is greatly appreciated and we hope you will continue with this support in the days to come.

The funds sent included commissions on purchases made up until to the end of September 2014. At the time of writing (25th November) we have raised £16.90 towards our next donation but Amazon won't pay out until we hit £25, so please do support this venture, especially with regards to those last minute Christmas gifts! You can buy anything that is sold on Amazon - it doesn't have to be Phil-related. Just use the Amazon search box on the shop page. 

To find out more about how these shopping links work, visit our Shop FAQs page. And if you struggle to remember to visit us before visiting Amazon directly, why not add our Shop URL to your favourites or bookmarks and label it as Amazon?

The results of our poll are in and as you can see from the image below, the final result was a two way tie. In light of this, we have split amount raised between Shooting Star Chase and Hospice Aid UK, resulting in them both having received a donation of £30. Donations were made this morning (9th March).

Unfortunately, on this occasion, due to the online systems used for donating, we were unable to relay to the respective charities that the money had come from fans of their patron, Philip Glenister. We will however be tweeting this article to both charities in that hope that they will see it and know how generous Philip's fans have been.

The money we raise comes from commission earned from Amazon whenever someone makes a purchase through the fansite shop. In the grand scheme of things, the commission earned is quite small compared to the total amount spent, so we urge you to shop through us wherever possible. You can buy anything that is sold on Amazon - it doesn't have to be Phil-related. Just use the Amazon search box on the shop page.

One-off donations can also be made through our GoFundMe page.

At the time of writing (9th March) we have raised £17.71  towards our next donation so, with your support it shouldn't be long until we hit the £25 threshold st by Amazon and are able to make another donation.

If you struggle to remember to use our shop, why not add the URL of the page to your favourites or bookmarks and label it as Amazon?

Thanks again for all your support!!

We are delighted to announce that we have raised £60 for charity from our site-shop (in partneship with Amazon.co.uk) and it's now time to decide which charity we should send it to. As you know we like to donate to a charity of which Philip is patron and our last donation of £37 was made in September last year to Momentum.

This time we would like you, Philip's fans, to decide where the money should be sent. There are four charities in contention: Momentum, Shooting Star Chase, Hospice Aid UK and Born Too Soon. (Click on the charities to visit their website and find out more about their work)

Please vote for one option in the poll below. The poll will close on Friday 7th March. If the winning vote is a split, we will have a second poll where you will be able to select the charities that will receive the money.

Once again, Philip is to host the annual Momentum Celebrity Golf Day. This year the charity is celebrating 10 years so it is sure to be a superb fundraising event.

The will take place on Friday 13th June at the beautiful Richmond Golf Club. Teams of three will make up a four-ball with a celebrity from the Stage Golfing Society to play an 18-hole competiton to Stableford Rules. There will be prizes for first, second and third place as well as Nearest the Pin and Longest Drive competition for individuals.

A team of three costs £400 to include coffee and bacon roll on arrival and a delicious carvery lunch to follow in the Clubhouse, with entertainment from the Stage Golfing Society. Individual places available at £150 per person. Ladies' teams most welcome.

We have today received a letter from Momentum, thanking us for the donation we made to them and detailing how our money will be spent. You can read a copy of the letter below (click to enlarge). 

Thanks one again to those who helped us to make this first donation. If you want to help us raise money towards our next charity donation then either donate directly here or purchase something through our site shop.

On October 27th, the fan site will celebrate its first birthday! Wow, that year has certainly gone quickly. It’s been a great year, both for us and for Philip, and we’re proud to have reached this milestone… hopefully the first of many.  However, it also means that it’s time for the site’s fees to be paid.

Now, while we are (and are committed to staying) an advertising free, non-profit making site, the current economic climate is going to make it a struggle to keep the site online next year without money from outside sources. So we have taken the decision to ask for donations to help keep us afloat.

We have opened a GoFundMe page where you can make donations via debit or credit card or PayPal. It's perfectly secure - we don't receive any of your bank details. You can even remain anonymous if you don’t wish others to know how much you’ve donated.

This isn't a decision we have taken lightly and we are grateful for each and every donation – large or small. If every visitor to our site in the last month reads this and donates £1, we would be more than adequately funded for a good few years, but not everyone can or will donate. And that's fine – we appreciate that some people don’t have the means or the inclination.

We’ve set the goal as £100 to allow some flexibility in how long we secure the sites future for. Any money that isn’t spent on the site’s future at this time will be sent to a charity endorsed by Philip.

Please do consider making a donation, so we’ll all have somewhere to go to share our love of Philip Glenister.
