Gift Aid

If you're a UK tax payer you can Gift Aid your donations, making them worth 25 per cent more to us (25p for every £1), at no extra cost to you.

Income from Gift Aid really does make a big difference to the on-going work of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, so please don't forget to complete a valid Gift Aid Declaration:

If you are a higher-rate tax payer you can also claim additional tax relief.

For higher rate tax payers (paying at 40%) this works out as 25p for every £1 you donate and for the highest rate tax payers (paying tax at 50%) this works out as 37.5p for every £1 donated.
