Tax Relief on Donantions 

Donations to charity from individuals are tax free.  You can get tax relief if you donate: 

  • Through Gift Aid
  • Straight from your wages or pension, through Payroll Giving
  • Leave charitable donations in your will (reduce inheritance tax) 
  • King's Ely are HMRC Registered and can claim back the tax already paid on your donation. 
Gift Aid

Donating through Gift Aid means charities and community amateur sports clubs (CASCs) can claim an extra 25p for every £1 you give. It does not cost you any extra.

As long as you are a UK taxpayer and sign a Gift Aid declaration, King's Ely is able to reclaim basic rate tax, which currently equates to 25p for every £1 donated.

If you pay tax above the 20% basic rate you can claim back the difference between the tax you have paid on the donation and what the charity got back when you fill in your self-assessment tax return.

Examples
 
£10,000 Gift
You donate £10,000 to King's Ely - King's Ely claim Gift Aid to make your donation £12,500. You pay 40% tax so you can personally claim back £2500.00 (£12,500 x 20%).
