Gift Aid

If you are a UK Income Tax payer, gift aid increases the value of donations to the church by allowing the church to re-claim basic tax on your giving. If you pay higher rate tax you can claim extra relief on your donations. If you claim age-related allowances or tax credits, gift aid donation can sometimes increase your entitlement. Basic rate tax is currently 20%, so this means that if you give £10 per week using gift aid, its worth £12.50 per week to the church. One-off donations can also benefit from gift aid.

In order to make a gift aid donation, you need to make gift aid declaration. To download a gift aid declation form, please click on the link below and pass to our Gift Aid Secretary, Peter Ward.
