Gift Aid
Make Your Donation Go Further!
A Huge Difference at No Extra Cost to You!!!
Gift Aid is a government scheme which enables charities to claim tax back from the Inland Revenue on donations made by individuals. Under the scheme, the SVP can claim back the basic rate tax already paid on gifts of money received from individuals who pay or have paid UK tax.
The Gift Aid scheme means that your donation could be worth 28% more at no extra cost to you!
This means that £10 can be turned into £12.80 just as long as the donation is made through Gift Aid. Imagine what a difference that could make and it doesn’t cost you a thing!!!
Before we can claim tax on your donation(s) you must sign and return a Gift Aid declaration form. This provides written confirmation that:
- you have paid or will pay at least as much UK tax (for the tax year in which you donate) as the amount we will reclaim on your donation(s)
- you want us to claim tax back for your donation(s)
Please use this Gift Aid Calculator to work out the value of your donation if you Gift Aid it.
If you would like the SVP to claim back tax on your donation(s) please complete and return this Gift Aid Declaration with your donation or complete the Gift Aid sections on the online forms.
