Gift Aid and Tax Relief

If you are a UK taxpayer and pledge by Gift Aid, the Caldicott Foundation can increase your gift by 25% by reclaiming tax from HMRC, at no additional cost to you or us.

The tables below show how Gift Aid can greatly increase the total donation that the Caldicott Foundation receives. It also shows how tax relief can reduce the net cost of the donation to you (for those paying the higher or high rate tax at 40% or 45%).

If you are in Europe and want to find out about tax-deductible donations, find out more here.

Making an impact over time

Rather than giving a larger one-off gift would it be easier for you to support the work of the foundation through regular donations? Regular donations make a significant impact over time and show your commitment to the important work of the Foundation. Here we illustrate how the value of a gift can accumulate over a five year period, but it is entirely up to you how long you would like your giving to continue for:

Your monthly donation Gross Annual Value to Caldicott after Gift Aid Annual Net cost to you (as a 40% / 45% taxpayer) Your total donation after 5 years Total gross value to Caldicott after 5 years Your total net cost after 5 years (as a 40%/45% taxpayer)
£10 £150 £90 / £82.50 £600 £750 £450 / £412.50
£25 £375 £225 / £206.25 £1,500 £1,875 £1,125 / £1,031.25
£50 £750 £450 / £412.50 £3,000 £3,750 £2,250 / £2,062.50
£100 £1,500 £900 / £825 £6,000 £7,500 £4,500 / £4,125
£250 £3,750 £2,250 / £2,062.50 £15,000 £18,750 £11,250 / £10,312.50

Making a one-off donation

Here we illustrate how single, one-off gifts can work, at some more significant levels. We would be delighted to talk to you if you would like to explore options more personally:

Your actual donation Gross Value to Caldicott after Gift Aid Tax relief to you as a 40% / 45% taxpayer Net cost of donation to 40% / 45% taxpayer Annual donation over 5 years Your total net cost per annum if spread over 5 years
