Gift Aid allows UK charities to claim back the basic rate tax already paid on donations by the donor. By reclaiming tax from His Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (HMRC), Gift Aid is a great way for you to help Maryhill Burgh Halls Trust maximise the value of its donations. That means we can claim an extra 25p for every £1 you donate. There is no extra cost to you.
