Gift Aid Information
This section has details about how to set up to claim gift aid and some of the rules about what you can and cannot claim.
Setting up Gift Aid
There are two presentations which walk you through setting up for gift aid.
Presentation 1 can be found in the first link
Presentation 2 can be found in the second link
You also need to ask all Parents to sign the Gift Aid form. A sample form that you can download can be found in Presentation 2, but a better way is to set it up in OSM which means you have less work to do and the parents only need to answer 4 questions.
Claiming Gift Aid
Once you are registered, you can claim up to 25% of your subs plus donations. You do this online with the account you registered in step 2 above.
There are, however some rules which you need to follow. A short flow chart (see link below) shows you what you can and cannot claim for.
There is also a web page issued by HMRC (See link below) which details some of this too.
