HE UK needs your support

A small favour…

founded in January 2000, HE UK is the oldest website supporting home educators in the UK. It has around 275 thousand unique visitors looking for information logging 4 million hits a year. With over 220 pages it's also the largest. It operates from the basis of internationally recognised human rights and UK law.

Running this site and dealing with all the enquiries I receive, has become a full time effort. The logistics, including (among other things) specialist software, maintaining tech hardware, hosting and fast fibre links, necessary to run HE UK, publish books and continue related work comes to around £2,000 a year.

Please consider the time and effort it took to research, verify, collate, write, code and maintain all this information.

So, if you found this site useful, if it went some way towards helping you, please consider a small pay pal contribution. Even a micro payment of just £1 would at least show your appreciation.

If you do decide to assist in this valuable work, keeping this web site live:

please send a small payment, using pay pal to mike@home-education.org.uk
