  <p>Becoming a member of our network is free, and we've created a contribution page to collect a few details from individuals. We'd like to edit the "thank you" page that users are sent to once they have completed the contribution page, so that it's cleaner and easier to read, and (most importantly) doesn't have the information about a membership fee - we're worried this will confuse people, even though it will of course say £0.00, because they are not paying anything.</p>
  
  <p>Any tips on how to edit this page? And apologies if it's glaringly obvious ;)</p>

  You don't need to use a Contribution page to collect a few details. You can do this via a [Profile](https://docs.civicrm.org/user/en/latest/organising-your-data/profiles/) so it may make more sense to direct contacts to the Profile if they are not donating at the same time
