GIFT AID

All donations by UK taxpayers made under Gift Aid are increased in value by 28%
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. Again the Order is attached to this leaflet.

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.
