The
government’s Gift Aid scheme enables charities
to claim back tax paid on donations. For example a donation
of £10 would enable the Hospice to
claim an additional £2.80 at no extra cost to the donor. Eligible donations
made online are automatically Gift Aided.
For donations to qualify, donors must be UK taxpayers
and must have paid an amount of income or capital gains
tax
at least equal to the amount the Hospice will claim in
the year that the donation was given. This also applies
to tax paid on pension and savings, meaning most people
qualify not only those in employment.
If you are a UK taxpayer and have previously donated the
Hospice please complete a Gift Aid declaration form and
return it to us at the below address. Alternatively,
email the declaration form to fundraising@rossendalehospice.org.
Declarations can also be made verbally by calling
01706 240081.
