Gift Aid

Churches can claim tax back from donations made by UK taxpayers and thereby increase their income, but only with permission from the taxpayer.

As a Diocese there is more we can we do to maximise our Gift Aid receipts.

  • To claim Gift Aid an individual must be a UK taxpayer and have paid sufficient tax to cover the claim. The tax may have been paid at the basic rate or lower rates or it may have been paid in the form of Capital Gains Tax.

  • Donations left to a charity in a Will cannot be Gift Aided. However any interest (with tax deducted) which may accrue to the Estate before the donation is paid can be claimed back.
