Terms of Sponsorship

Last updated: 16 October 2026 · Draft pending final legal review

What a brick is

A brick is a public sponsorship placement on this website. £250 buys one brick. Contributions must be whole multiples of £250. Your chosen name (and optional link) is displayed on the live wall and permanently on the funded house's archive page. A brick is a sponsorship of the fundraising campaign, not a physical brick, and confers no ownership, interest, or rights in any property.

House completion and carry-over

Each house's wall holds a fixed number of bricks. If your contribution arrives as a wall completes, any bricks that don't fit are automatically laid at the start of the next house's wall — you never lose bricks you've paid for.

If a house is not completed

If a house cannot be completed, the money raised for it will be given to local homelessness charities working towards a similar mission.

Acceptable names and links

We may reject, anonymise, or remove any sponsor name or link that is offensive, misleading, unlawful, or impersonates someone else — without refund where the placement was removed for breaching these terms in bad faith. Reasonable judgement, exercised quickly, keeps the wall a place businesses are proud to be on.

Sponsor links

Sponsor links are paid placements and are published with the rel="sponsored" attribute, in line with search-engine guidelines. We don't guarantee any search-ranking outcome from a placement.

Refunds

If something has gone wrong — a duplicate payment, a mistake in the amount — contact us and we'll put it right, including refunding where appropriate. Refunded contributions are removed from the wall.

Who takes your payment

Buy A Brick is operated in the United Kingdom as a sole trader business trading as "Buy A Brick". It is not a registered charity. Contributions are sponsorship payments for a public placement on the wall — they are not charitable donations and are not tax-deductible. Payments are processed securely by Stripe.
