Gift Aid
If you are a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid allows you to increase the value of your gift to NLS without paying anything more. All you have to do is fill in the Gift Aid declaration form we can send you. This will allow us to reclaim from the Inland Revenue tax which you have already paid at basic rate through income tax or capital gains tax.
This makes your donation worth even more to us – and makes your money go further.
Contact us to find out more.
