Make a gift aid declaration
When NSEMM receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we can claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax for that year) paid on the donation. Once you give your consent for us to do this on your behalf (by completing the Gift Aid form), you don’t need to take any further action.
To qualify, you must be a taxpayer and have paid, or will pay, enough Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on your donations to all charities and Community Amateur Sports Clubs within the same tax year. Please note that it’s your responsibility to pay any shortfall.
The tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations for that tax year. If you’re a higher-rate taxpayer, you can also claim the difference between the basic rate we claim and the actual tax you’ve paid. For more details on how to do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax circumstances change and your donations no longer qualify for Gift Aid, please let us know so we can update your record accordingly.
Adding Gift Aid means every £1 you donate is worth £1.25 to NSEMM, at no extra cost to you. You can make your Gift Aid declaration as part of the donation flow.
