What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your browser or device. Similar technologies, such as local storage and scripts, work in comparable ways. They help websites work, remember preferences, protect against spam, and understand how a site is used.

Cookies we use

Essential cookies

These are needed for the website to work and stay secure, and they cannot be switched off in our systems. They include cookies used to keep our forms working and to protect them from spam and abuse, including Cloudflare Turnstile. Staff who sign in to manage the website also receive login cookies.

Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use our website, such as which pages are visited and how long visits last. This helps us improve the site for families and supporters. Google Analytics uses cookies such as _ga and _ga_*, which can last up to two years. The information is reported to us in aggregate and is not used to identify you personally.
