Gift Aid your donation

Gift Aid your donation

Choosing Gift Aid means your donation can make an even bigger impact on children and young people's mental health. All at no extra cost to you.

When you donate with Gift Aid, we can claim an extra 25p from the Government for every £1 you give. That's an extra 25% towards improving the lives of vulnerable children and young people.

Giving through Gift Aid doesn't cost you any extra. You can donate through Gift Aid as long as:

  1. you're a UK taxpayer
  2. you pay Income Tax and/or Capital Gains tax at a rate at least equal to the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year (otherwise, it's your responsibility to pay the difference)
  3. your donation comes from your own money, not from a collection or fundraising activities.
