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.

Your details

Please write your name in English letters, as on your tax records, with your first name in full (not an initial). One person per declaration: a couple makes two.

Which donations does it cover?

I want to Gift Aid any donations I make in the future or have made in the past 4 years to Brixton Full Gospel Church Trust (London Shepherd Church), registered charity 1085892.

I am a UK taxpayer and understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year it is my responsibility to pay any difference.

Thank you

Please keep it in case you need to contact us about your declaration. If you gave an email address, a copy is on its way. When you give by bank transfer, please put your name as the payment reference so the church can match your gifts to this declaration.

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.
