Gift Aid declaration
Boost your giving by 25p for every £1 you give, at no extra cost to you.
If you pay UK Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax, Gift Aid lets the church reclaim the basic-rate tax on your gifts from HMRC. One declaration covers everything you have given in the past 4 years and everything you give in the future, until you tell us otherwise. If you didn't pay UK tax in some of those years, you can choose the tax years it covers. Your home address is needed to identify you as a current UK taxpayer.
Please tell the church if you
- want to cancel this declaration,
- change your name or home address, or
- no longer pay enough tax on your income and/or capital gains.
Use the contact form and choose “Giving & Gift Aid”, or speak to us on Sunday.
If you pay Income Tax at the higher or additional rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due to you, you must include all your Gift Aid donations on your Self Assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your tax code.
Prefer paper? Ask for a Gift Aid form on Sunday. Live outside the UK, including the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands? Please speak to us rather than using this form.
How we use your details
The church uses them only to claim Gift Aid from HMRC, keeps them as HMRC requires (at least 6 years after the last claim that relies on your declaration), and does not share them with anyone else. HMRC may check them. See our privacy notice.
