As you may already know, Gift Aid was set up by the government to support charitable organizations, such as our own parish. If you are a UK tax payer, we can add 25p to every £1 that you donate, reclaimed from the tax you have already paid. It does not matter which tax bracket you belong to, as long as the tax you pay is more than the amount we claim back. In fact, Gift Aid benefits higher bracket tax payers who can claim the difference between the rate they pay and the basic rate on their donation.
