What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid enables charities like Woodcraft Folk to claim back the tax paid by donors on money they donate to the charity. If you are a UK taxpayer, every £10 you donate could be worth £12.80 to Woodcraft Folk.

Donors need to complete a simple form with their name, address, amount donated and confirming that they have paid tax on the money they are donating and wish the charity to be able to claim it back as Gift Aid.
