Please read these terms carefully. They explain the rules for using our website, making donations, and using the information we share.

Last updated: 14 October 2026

1.About these terms

These terms apply to your use of the Bikur Cholim D'Satmar London website. The website is run by Bikur Cholim D'Satmar London (“Bikur Cholim”, “we”, “us”, “our”), a registered charity in England and Wales (charity number 1085965) and a company limited by guarantee (company number 4001168), with its registered office at Ground Floor, 2a Northfield Road, London N16 5RN.

By using our website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website. These terms cover the website only; separate agreements apply when you receive care or support from us, volunteer, or work for us.

2.Not an emergency service

Our website and contact form are not monitored around the clock and must not be used in an emergency. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999. For urgent medical help that is not an emergency, call NHS 111. If you are struggling to cope, you can call Samaritans free on 116 123 at any time.

3.Information on our website

The information on our website, including health and wellbeing information, is provided for general guidance only. It is not medical, psychological or professional advice and should not replace advice from your GP, therapist or another qualified professional about your own situation.

We work hard to keep the website accurate and up to date, but we cannot guarantee that all content is complete, current or free from errors. Details of our services, events and opportunities may change.

4.Using our website

You may use our website for lawful purposes only. You must not:

  • Use the website in a way that breaks any law or regulation, or is fraudulent or harmful.
  • Send us content that is offensive, threatening, defamatory or that you do not have the right to share.
  • Try to gain unauthorised access to the website, its server, our staff dashboard or any connected database.
  • Introduce viruses or other harmful material, or attempt to disrupt the website’s operation.
  • Collect data from the website using automated tools without our written permission.
  • Impersonate Bikur Cholim, our staff or anyone else.

Areas of the website marked for staff use are only for people we have authorised. If you have staff login details, you must keep them confidential.

5.Donations

  • All donations are made voluntarily to Bikur Cholim D'Satmar London, registered charity number 1085965, and are used to further our charitable purposes.
  • Monthly donations continue until you cancel them. You can cancel at any time by contacting us.
  • If you make a donation in error, please contact us within 30 days and we will do our best to refund it. Refunds are given at our discretion and cannot be given once Gift Aid has been claimed on the donation, unless the claim can be reversed.
  • Gift Aid lets us claim an extra 25p from HMRC for every £1 you give. By making a Gift Aid declaration, you confirm that you are a UK taxpayer and that you understand that if you pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year, it is your responsibility to pay any difference. Please tell us if you change your name or address, or no longer pay enough tax.
  • Card payments are processed securely by our payment provider. We do not store your full card details.

6.Contacting us through the website

When you send us a message, please give accurate details so that we can reply. We aim to respond to enquiries promptly, but sending a message does not create a commitment to provide a particular service. We will use the information you send in line with our Privacy Policy.

7.Our content and trademarks

The content on this website, including text, photographs, graphics, logos and the Bikur Cholim name and branding, belongs to us or is used with permission. You may view, print and share pages for personal, non-commercial use, or to tell others about our work, as long as you do not change them and you credit Bikur Cholim.

You must not use our name, logo or content for commercial purposes, fundraising, or in a way that suggests we endorse you, without our written permission. Photographs of service users, volunteers and staff must not be reused under any circumstances.

9.Website availability

We provide the website free of charge and do not guarantee that it will always be available or uninterrupted. We may suspend, change or withdraw any part of the website at any time, for example for maintenance or updates.

10.Our responsibility to you

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, our website, or from relying on any content on it. We are not responsible for loss caused by viruses or other harmful material that may affect your device as a result of using the website or downloading content from it.

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded under the laws of England and Wales. Nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights.

11.Your privacy

We take your privacy seriously. Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and protect your personal information, including the small amount of browser storage our website uses.
