We can claim 25% extra of the value of your cash donations. You can sign up online or post a form to us.
We can claim an extra 25p on each pound we make when we sell your goods. You can sign up in any Cancer Research UK shop.
Simply complete a Gift Aid declaration form and we can start claiming back tax on your donation.
It costs you nothing as long as you pay Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax at a rate at least equal to the amount of Gift Aid claimed on your donations in that tax year. Otherwise, it’s your responsibility to pay the difference.
Keep records of your donations as you’ll need to report these on your tax return. HMRC can then adjust your tax code.
When you sign up, we can add Gift Aid to the past 4 years of your donations to Cancer Research UK. We’ll continue to add Gift Aid to any donations you make in the future, unless you ask us not to.
