Gift Aid is a simple way to increase the value of your gift to The French Hospital whatever way you give – at no extra cost to you. If you pay tax in the UK we can reclaim the tax on your gift. If you are a UK taxpayer, please tick the Gift Aid declaration and we’ll send you a Gift Aid form via e-mail or by post.
I am a UK Tax Payer and I would like The French Hospital to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made as well as any future donations until I notify them otherwise. To qualify for gift aid I understand that I must have paid income/capital gains tax that is at least equal to the amount of tax that all the charities and Community Amateur Sports Clubs I donate to will reclaim on my Gift Aid donations in the tax year in which they are received and that other taxes such as Council Tax and VAT do not count for this purpose.
