Gift Aid is a scheme that allows your church to recover tax on your donations.

You can cancel at any time by contacting your church’s Gift Aid Secretary/Treasurer.

Return the completed Gift Aid Declaration to the Gift Aid Secretary/Treasurer. The church will record donations received from you and periodically recover an amount equal to basic rate tax on those donations. If the basic rate of tax is 20% your church will recover 25p for every £1 you donate.*
