Add Gift Aid to your donation
Gift aid is a fantastic scheme which can make your donations go 25% further, and it won’t cost you a penny!
As long as you are a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid enables you to boost the value of your donations by 25p for every £1 you give to your favourite charity. So, for example, if you decide to give £10 to Shelter Cymru we will be able to reclaim an extra £2.50 from HM Revenue & Customs at no cost to you.
For higher rate taxpayers, there is an added incentive to claim tax relief for your donation. You can reclaim the difference between the basic rate of tax (20%) and the higher rate of tax (40%) when you complete your Self Assessment form.
What do you need to do?
To donate through Gift Aid, all you need to do is complete a simple declaration (orally or in writing) confirming that you are a UK taxpayer and that you are happy for us to claim tax relief on your donation. Just one declaration can apply to all donations that you have made to us over the past 4 years and to any future gifts you make, until you notify us otherwise. It is that simple.
Please contact us by email on [email protected] or ring 01792 483003 to find out more about Gift Aid today.
