Gift Aid and making your donation go further

Gift Aid

Gift Aid can increase your gift amount by 25%, at no extra cost to you. 

Are you a UK taxpayer? It is easy and doesn’t cost you anything. By signing up to the Gift Aid scheme you could enable us to reclaim the tax on donations made during the past four years, meaning for every £1 we can claim an extra 25p!

All you need to do is include details of your charity gifts on your tax form.

For example if you were to donate £10,000 to the National Autistic Society:

  • The National Autistic Society can reclaim Gift Aid as above, so your gift is now worth £12,500
  • In addition, you can also claim higher rate tax relief for yourself. This is calculated as 40% (the higher rate) minus 20% (basic rate) of £12,500 (your gross donation), i.e. £2,500. Meaning, your gift has only cost you £7,500 but is worth £12,500 to the National Autistic Society and the people we support.

For the latest information, see the government's guidance on Gift Aid.

Payroll giving 

By giving through your salary, donations will cost you less as they are taken from your salary before tax is deducted. 

Find more information on our payroll giving page. 

The amount of tax relief you get depends on the rate of tax you pay. For the more details, see  government guidance on payroll giving.

 

Further information 

All donors should seek independent financial advice before making a donation.
