Donations
A word from our patron: Sir David Attenborough
“The Museum of Richmond is evolving. Indeed it must do so if it is to remain alive and continue to reflect both the discoveries about our community’s past and the possibilities for its future. Will you help us to continue to serve our community? You could do so by making a donation. I do hope you will.”
You can make a donation in three ways:
- In Person (at the Museum)
- Online via this link or the button below
- By Text
Please text MUSEUM to 70580 to donate £5
Texts will cost the donation amount plus one standard network rate message
Company Giving
Companies can claim Corporation Tax relief on all donations to charities. So, for a company paying Corporation Tax at 30%, the net cost of a donation worth £5,000 to the charity would be £3,500.
Gift Aid
All donations by UK taxpayers made under Gift Aid are increased in value by 25% and at no cost to the donor. Just fill in the Gift Aid section on the Donation Form and send it with your cheque. If you are a higher rate tax payer, you can reclaim the difference between the basic and higher rates on your annual return.
Regular Gift Aid donations by Bank Standing Order are especially valuable. This enables you to spread your gift over a number of months or years and the Museum to reclaim the tax.
