Gift Aid Your Donation
Gift Aid is a tax relief scheme, which allows UK charities to reclaim an extra 25% in tax on every eligible donation made by a UK taxpayer. This means that for every £1 you donate to a charity, this becomes £1.25.
Did you know furniture donations can be Gift Aided to - so whether your donating money or furniture, we can claim for both.
Thank you!
