Gift Aid

Your donation can now go even further. If you pay sufficient income tax or capital gains tax you can make tax-efficient donations of any amount to charities. If you do make your donation under Gift Aid rules, the Royal Alfred can claim 28 pence from the Inland Revenue for every pound you donate. If you pay higher rate tax you can reclaim the higher rate component in your own tax return.

For your donation to be eligible for Gift Aid, please complete the Gift Aid section on your donation form before you send it off.

If setting up a bankers order and you want your regular contributions to be eligible for Gift Aid, you will also need to print out and complete the Gift Aid section of the donation form. Please send us both completed forms together.
