Why Not Gift Aid It?
Gift Aid is a scheme that allows charities to claim extra money from HMRC for any donations they receive from individuals who pay UK Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax.
The charity can claim an extra 25p for every £1.00 donated, without any extra cost to the donor.
The donor must make a Gift Aid declaration to confirm that they are eligible and that they agree to donate their tax refund to the charity.

With the generosity of our patrons and donations we have also managed to contribute £20,000 to help provide a fully equipped wetroom for our patients comfort and we purchased a vehicle with hydraulic wheelchair access, which is used daily.
