Reclaim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like IRCF to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that IRCF will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When IRCF receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.

Payroll Giving is a flexible scheme enabling employees to make tax-free charitable donations.

By setting up a gift through your payroll, your employees can make charitable donations straight from their salary.

The IRCF Give As You Earn toolkit will help you set up and promote this scheme to your staff.

Why not join a number of our other partners, by matching your employees’ donations to IRCF appeals. Matching employee donations is a great way to increase employee engagement, by showing support for the charities they care about.

If you do not already have a matched giving programme in place, you can find out more at the IRCF website.

Register with JustGiving to support the IRCF.

Once your team is registered with JustGiving, you are all setup to start planning your event.

We’ve also put together a fundraising slideshow to help you get started and hold a successful fundraising event.

Corporate partners

The IRCF calls upon the Rapid Response Network (RRN) when a disaster occurs to raise funds quickly and effectively. The RRN is made up of TV and radio broadcasters, banks, the Post Office, BT, press, and corporate organisations that work together with the IRCF to achieve maximum publicity and cost-effective ways for the public to make donations.
