Reclaim Gift Aid
Gift Aid It!Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows North Staffs Mind to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to North Staffs Mind we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like North Staffs Mind 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 North Staffs Mind 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 North Staffs Mind 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.

Donating through Payroll Giving

Payroll Giving is a simple way to support North Staffs and Cheshire Mind through your salary.

Your donation is taken directly from your pay before tax, which means you can give to us while paying less tax on that amount. For example, if you donate £10 through Payroll Giving, the amount it costs you will be less than £10, depending on your tax rate.

Some employers also offer matched giving, meaning they may match some or all of your donation. This could make your donation go even further.

Regular Payroll Giving donations are particularly valuable to us because they provide a reliable source of income. This helps us plan ahead, develop new services and continue providing support to local people.
